There are two license types for R‑Undelete:

R‑Undelete SE/Home

R‑Undelete Home is free for home users. It recovers files from FAT​/exFAT storage devices, like external USB hard drives and sticks, and digital photo and video camera memory cards. In addition to Quick Scan , R‑Undelete Home uses the Deep Scan procedure to find files using their file signatures , which makes R‑Undelete Home is an ideal solution for recovery lost digital photos, movies, and music.

This free version also allows its users to evaluate how the software recovers lost files from the NTFS and ReFS file systems, for which it is fully functional to save recovered files smaller than 1MB. Regardless of this limitation, all recovered files can be viewed in the build-in viewer to estimate recovery chances before you upgrade the Home version for recovery from NTFS disks.

R‑Undelete

R‑Undelete has no limitations and recovers lost files from NTFS, NTFS5 (created or updated by Win2000​/XP​/2003​/Vista​/2008​/2012​/2016​/Win7​/Win8​/Win10/Win11) and ReFS​/ReFS2+ (Resilient File System, Windows 2012​/2016 Server) disks as well as recovers them from FAT (FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, exFAT) disks. Moreover, it can recover files from any storage volumes visible to the host OS. Those can be software and hardware RAIDs, Windows Storage Spaces, and alike.
