For badly corrupted files (e.g. Word) what are the header based data
recovery programs out there (preferably with a GUI)?

Hi,

Are you trying to recover or repair? there's a big difference

Your question is a bit ambiguous because you say badly corrupted files which would indicate you have already done the data recovery stage.

If you want a recovery program then R-Studio but if the files are corrupted then they wont open until (or if) you can repair them using some 3rd party software.

Microsoft Office 2010 is fairly good at repairing corrupt Word & Excel files & it is usually the first software I try.
When you try to open the corrupt file is says its corrupted & asks if you would like it to try to repair the file.

Corrupt .jpegs is another common one I'd come across

if am not mistaking here, you are trying to repair damaged files from some Apps (such as r-studio)

99% of those cases are = dead end

files might be:

1- Damaged completely (even if its the same name)
2- from Encrypted volumes

remember 1 thing when you talk about JPG, one single bad block = dead image

good luck

You may try our R-Word and R-Excel.
