iCare Data Recovery – Overview
#In 2009, software company iCareAll released iCare Data Recovery v1.0. It’s best known for supporting a wide range of Windows versions (including Windows 2000) and offering unlimited free recovery.* While these offers make a strong case for iCare, the software has some limitations we strongly suggest you consider as you go through this article. But first, an overview.
*Unlimited free Quick Scan only. Does not apply to Deep Scan and RAW/Deleted partition recovery.

As we’ve already mentioned a few times, iCare Data Recovery offers free unlimited data recovery, which is rare among its competitors. But it only works for recently deleted files, so don’t apply this type of scan on a corrupted or infected drive. Users can also activate a trial for iCare Data Recovery Pro, which provides a complete solution for up to 1 GB of data.
As of this writing, iCareAll is offering great discounts for paid versions – yet it’s still on the pricier side considering the app’s limitations (which we’ll explore later in this article). They offer annual subscriptions at $69 for 1 PC and $99 for 2 PCs, as well as a lifetime license for $399.99 that can be used on an unlimited number of machines.
iCare Data Recovery does not have a money-back guarantee, which is something most data recovery software offer. We consider this a red flag, so we strongly advise you to read the rest of this article before deciding to buy.

Developer — iCareAll Inc.
iCareAll was established in 2009 and released version 1 of iCare Data Recovery that same year. The company added more tools to its arsenal, including document editors and converters. This is a common business model for many developers (not all).

iCare Data Recovery for Windows
Tested on: Windows 11 (21H2)
By now, we know a couple of things: (1) iCare Data Recovery has been around for a long time, (2) the free version offers unlimited recovery, and (3) it supports most Windows versions. Looking pretty good so far… But how does the app perform when tested in real life?
How We Test
Pandora Recovery reviews follow a strict testing methodology that our technicians designed to measure the value any app offers its users – especially when compared to its competitors.
# | Step | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | Installation | We expect a fast and easy installation process. Time is of the essence – every minute lost fumbling over installation decreases the likelihood of recovering all or most of your data. |
2 | Source selection | Following the same logic as above, it should be quick and easy for users to select the drive or partition they want to scan. |
3 | Scanning process | The best data recovery tools can track, predict, and even pause and resume the scanning process. This is especially important for failing or corrupted drives. |
4 | Managing found data | After scanning, we expect to easily locate and organize the found files through filters and sorting tools. |
5 | Recovery and post-processing | Finally, saving the files we want to restore should only take a few clicks. It should also be easy to choose a location to save the files. Ideally, the app should encourage the user to avoid saving files to the same disk that is being recovered. |
Our top-to-bottom approach will paint a clear picture for potential users and buyers of what they can expect to get out of this software. We consider performance, usability, value, extra features, and more – all the intel you need is in the following sections.
Installation
Installing iCare Data Recovery is as easy as installing any other Windows program. Users can download installers for the free and pro versions from their website. The installer itself is a standard wizard that users can complete with just a few clicks.
Source selection
Unfortunately, source selection was our first clue of iCare Data Recovery’s below-average user experience. The first source selection screen prompts the user to select a disk (not partition – not yet, at least). Then, a dialogue box pops up where the user can select the file types they want the program to restore.
The program will start scanning at this point. Once the scan is complete, only then can users select the partition they want to browse… But only once at a time. This means that users will have to go through each partition separately and return to the partition window to browse a new one (even if they’re on the same disk).
In comparison, other data recovery software prompts the user to select a source just once in the entire process. And right off the bat, users can usually select whether to scan a whole disk or just one of its partitions.
Scanning process
Once iCare Data Recovery begins the scan, a pop-up appears displaying real-time data such as elapsed and remaining time, found files, and more. As we explained in the last section, the app by default scans the whole disk and users can only browse specific partitions once the scan is complete.
Scan time depends on the size of your drive but we did notice a slower speed compared to other data recovery software we tested under the same conditions.
Managing found files
The app provides a few tools for users to manage and organize the found data. They can: (1) locate files by name, (2) search for data by file type, size, date, and other metadata, and (3) preview files one by one.
Recovery and post-processing
Fortunately, recovery is the easiest step. Users can select the files they want to restore by ticking the boxes to the left or by clicking the Select All button.
Upon clicking the Recover button, a pop-up appears where the user can browse and select a folder to store the recovered files. Once the retrieval process is complete, iCare Data Recovery will notify the user and simultaneously open the folder that contains the recovered data.

The information so far has given us a general idea of what to expect when using iCare Data Recovery but the nitty-gritty is much more interesting. In the sections below, we dissect the program and rate each individual part according to how well it helps users retrieve their data.
Karma
12 rating criteria
iCareAll and iCare Data Recovery have been around since 2009, so the developers are already established in the niche. However, that doesn’t mean they’re popular. In fact, their brand comes up 81.5% less than their competitors.
The app doesn’t get updated much, especially when compared to similar data recovery software that get updated as often as every 3 months. There are also no changelogs on their site.
That said, iCare does support the latest Windows version (and even supports versions as old as Windows 2000) and they provide helpdesk support on-site in case users run into any trouble. We wish they provided live chat support, as we’ve come to expect that from most of the apps we review on this site.

Bang for the buck
8 rating criteria
iCare Data Recovery’s biggest selling point is its free version – users can recover unlimited recently deleted data without having to pay for a license. iCareAll also offers a free trial for the licensed version that provides a complete toolset but only provides 1 GB of free data recovery.
Without the unlimited free trial, the app becomes a hard sell. Licenses are only available for annual subscriptions at $69 and $99 or a lifetime subscription at $399. Those prices are pretty expensive compared to other options – and that’s not even considering whether its performance is worth the cost. More on this in the following sections.

Usability
18 rating criteria
Most modern data recovery software put great emphasis on user experience. Based on what we’ve seen on the market, we expect a decent GUI (graphical user interface) and quality-of-life features that make it easy for users at any level to restore data.
Unfortunately, iCare Data Recovery lacks both. The GUI is outdated and critical usability features – like convenient session management – are missing. The app currently can’t auto-resume scans and backups, which is bad news for users with failing drives.
While basic features are easy to find and straightforward to use, the app isn’t beginner-friendly. Users can’t rely on it to choose an appropriate scan type and source selection is super clunky. As we mentioned in the testing section, users can only browse specific partitions one-by-one after scanning a disk. Finally, there is no built-in updater within the app and it only comes in one language: English.
There are a few good points worth mentioning, such as hex view and decent sorting and filtering tools for recovered files. The app was also easy to install.
# | Feature | Result |

1 | Modern user-friendly interface | No |
2 | Dark mode | No |

Recovery performance
122 rating criteria
So, how good is iCare Data Recovery at actually recovering data? Well, we were underwhelmed. Core scan types produced below-average results and many recovery features we’ve found in other apps are missing from this one. Details below.
# | Feature | Result | Description |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Deep scan | Fine | Clever scan works well with FAT32 and NTFS formats but failed to restore data from exFAT and non-Windows formats. |
2 | Quick scan | Fine | NTFS, exFAT, and FAT32 formats are supported with mixed results. |
3 | Other types of scan | Fine | Below average signature recognition and lacks BitLocker support. |
4 | Device support | Fine | Great support for common internal and external storage devices. |
5 | Real-life recovery challenge | Bad | Below average to average results when tested with document, video, and RAW photo recovery. |
6 | Other notable recovery features | Bad | Sorely lacking in features compared to competing software. |

2 | APFS partitions | 0 |
3 | FAT32 partitions | 3 |
4 | exFAT partitions | 0 |
5 | NTFS partitions | 4 |
6 | EXT4 partitions | 0 |
When tested on our FAT32 partition, iCare Data Recovery restored most of our data but parts of the original folder structure and some file names were missing. It did a little better with our NTFS partition. Most files were stored in a “lost” folder – recoverable, but orphaned from the folder tree.
We were disappointed that it didn’t work with our exFAT partition, which uses a Windows-based format. It also failed to restore anything from our HFS+, APFS, and EXT4 partitions. However, since those aren’t Windows-based formats, we won’t consider this as a major point against iCare Data Recovery for this article.

2 | APFS partitions | 0 |
3 | FAT32 partitions | 3 |
4 | exFAT partitions | 4 |
5 | NTFS partitions | 4 |
6 | EXT4 partitions | 0 |
iCare Data Recovery’s Quick scan did a little bit better. We were happy to discover that it worked with our exFAT partition this time, even if it missed more files than our FAT32 and NTFS partitions.
We encountered minor checksum and corruption issues when restoring our FAT32 partition, but we were satisfied with the results overall.
Similar to the Clever scan results, iCare failed to restore data from our HFS+, APFS, and EXT4 partitions (non-Windows).

5 | Recovered files' labeling | 0 |
6 | Partial file recovery | 5 |
7 | Disk images: scan and recovery | 0 |
Clever scan and Quick scan aren’t the only scan tools offered by most data recovery software, especially since data loss situations vary among users.
Unfortunately, iCare Data Recovery lags behind the majority of its competition. Its signature scan is rudimentary and produced below-average results (which we’ll explore in the real-life recovery challenge section). iCare also does not support BitLocker-encrypted drives at all.
Its lost partition scanning and partial file recovery are effective, but that doesn’t mean much when it struggles to restore common file types.

iCare Data Recovery provides standard device support. It works with internal and external hard drives and solid-state drives, as well as other commonly-used flash media like USB sticks and memory cards. It also supports unmountable partitions.
As of this writing, iCare does not provide recovery tools for iOS and Android mobile devices. Users with RAID drives should also look elsewhere.

We were surprised to find that it restored some of our BRAW data, but we advise users with professional equipment to try another software.

iCare Data Recovery has a lot to offer, but there are better choices for most users. Its free version allows you to recover unlimited data but will not perform deep scans. The professional version is likely to recover most of your files, but similarly-priced alternatives are likely to do better.
Adrian Try, datarescuetools.com
Icare data recovery ripped me off for 70.00. I had a WD external hard drive fail. I paid Icare for their program. The program produced 300 gig of useless gibberish. Icare refused to refund my money. Do not pay this company any money. You will be disappointed and they will refuse to refund your money.
James, from comment section at ghacks.net
Does not work. They don't honor their moneyback guarantee..
They recovered files from my SD card, but none of the Canon .CR2 files would open. The competing software from Data Rescue recovered *and repaired* the files.Pros: They gave me false hope that they could recover the files.
Cons: Bad customer service does not offer refunds for non-working software.

Bottom line
We hate to say it, but there’s no reason to choose or recommend iCare Data Recovery over other software on the market.
It sorely lacks in both usability and recovery performance, yet demands a relatively hefty price tag. This may sound harsh, but there are well-designed and reliable data recovery software tools that offer lifetime licenses that are 3x cheaper than iCare’s.
The one exception where we encourage users to try is the unlimited free version. If you just need to restore a lot of recently deleted data, it’s worth a shot. Otherwise, consider alternatives.
