DFSee is an FDISK-like display, analysis and recovery tool with powerfull FIX commands and UNDELETE for HPFS and NTFS.

DFSee is a command-line and text-only utility (no GUI). This allows usage from simple boot-diskettes for recovery. The package includes an OS/2, Win-NT and DOS version.

DFSee can be downloaded from the web-site, but after evaluation, and for all real use you are required to get a registration. It can be purchased from the Mensys online shop for about US $18.

Details can be found at http://www.fsys.demon.nl/dfsee.htm.

Version 4.04 updates and fixes:

• Fixed trap and added msg for HPFS 'CHECK' bad codepage sectors
• Added some important sectors to DFSUNFD logfile
• Added 'last accessed sector' to some critical error messages
• Reduced DFSMDOS.EXE memory usage by 60Kb (compared to 4.03)

Registering DFSee will give you the right to use all 4.xx versions and get support plus a reasonable amount of assistance by email.

But even more important, it enables further development of DFSee! The next major change for DFSee will be multiple UNDO/REDO...
