Have any data recovery software which give opportunity to use file name or folder name to search for lost documents? Because, searching all type of documents take many time.

Unless I am misunderstanding the question, just about every software provides that feature.

What are you trying to accomplish and why?

The recovery software takes a long time because should scan the entire disk to collect information about files, after the scan you could search for a specific file. The problem is that the name doesn't tell to the program where to search.

If the disk is not too damaged ther's something you could try.. with Ontrack easy recovery you could make an "advanced data recovery". That kind of operation tries to identify damaged partitions and file allocation tables.. If you could find a the partition/file allocation table you will probably find all files in a small time.

May be other softwares has similar methods, just make a search

@labtech,

Exactly - not enough info being given here. :(

If, as I suspect, the OP's questions are related to an older thread (where the OP was banned for encouraging software piracy) there is a whole bunch of (slightly unclear) history to this situation, including discussion that most of the OP's data (and filesystem metadata) has likely been overwritten - hence my question to the OP in their (current) other thread:

viewtopic.php?f=1&t=25896

If this is related to the previous (unclear) thread, I think it's unrealistic to expect anyone to figure out the current situation remotely...
