Acronis RecoveryExpert is easy-to-use, expert-level software for recovering

hard disk partitions. Whether you have deleted a partition by mistake, or you

Chapter 2. Working with Acronis

RecoveryExpert

The Acronis RecoveryExpert starts with the welcome page. This lists all the

capabilities of this software program.

Then Acronis RecoveryExpert begins reading the partition configuration of

your hard disks.

After the process is finished you may see a warning that there are no

unallocated spaces on your hard disks:

Hard disks do not have any unallocated spaces

Please note: the entire hard disk space can be partly partitioned and/or

partly unallocated. If you delete a disk partition – whether intentionally or by

mistake – its space becomes unallocated. You can create a new partition

using unallocated space only.

Acronis RecoveryExpert checks to see if your hard disks contain unallocated

spaces. If you have no unallocated spaces then it makes no sense to search

for deleted partitions. If you have unallocated space, it may have contained

one or more partitions. Acronis RecoveryExpert will search unallocated space

thoroughly – either automatically or manually.
