News for June 2022

It's time for another great, feature-rich update to DiskDigger for Windows, and a minor, but no-less-important update to DiskDigger for Android. Here is what's new in the Windows version:
  • Added support for recovering .CLIP (Clip Studio Paint) files in "Dig Deeper" mode.
  • Added support for recovering .TCX (Training Center XML) files.
  • Added a new experimental feature for searching for strings of text on the disk. When selecting the scanning mode (i.e. "Dig Deep" or "Dig Deeper") go to the Advanced tab and click the "Show experimental features" button. You can then enter the text to search for, and specify the character encoding of the string, which can be ASCII, UTF-8, UTF-16, or hex values. When you proceed with scanning, DiskDigger will display a list of sectors where the specified text is found. You can then "recover" the contents starting from that sector, up to a size that you specify.
  • Improved overall scan efficiency, as well as decreased the executable size (1.7 MB), although it was rather small already!
  • Updated multilingual translations.

And here is what's new in the Android version:

  • Further improvements to saving recoverable files back to the device's local storage, particularly on specific models of Samsung and OnePlus devices.
  • Improvements to recovering videos. There is now a new experimental feature for finding lost videos, even on a non-rooted device. Upon starting the app, tap the overflow menu (three dots on the top-right) and select "Advanced/experimental features", then tap "Start basic video search".
