Few of my readers are facing data damage problem in tally. Asking for help and rewrite command in tally is also not working. I am presenting few more things here and some interesting readings which would help you to recover your data not only in tally but also in other softwares. But before this let me give you my words to prevent this thing. Follow these things and chances are high that you will never face a situation where you have to look for data recovery software or sending data to experts.

First and most important thing is proper power backup. Your computer should have that much backup which can help it in properly shut down the system. When working in network environment it becomes more important.

But your data is corrupt and files are damaged now what to do?

When you have accidentally deleted the files.

If your files are deleted from recycle bin then there are chances that you can recover data from computer with help of any data recovery software. This is because when we delete certain files from computer then they are not actually deleted even after you remove from recycle bin. Windows mark those files as free space and when you write some thing new on computer then there is possibility that those areas can be overwritten by new files and your deleted data files can be erased fully or partially.

So the first thing to do if your computer crashes on which you have put your Tally, is never write any thing on that hard disk where files are deleted and you plan to recover it with some data recovery software.

You should avoid installing new software on that PC also as installing software would also may erase the data.

Don’t download any heavy files from Internet as that can also lead to write on hard disk.

Attach that hard disk to another system and install data recovery software on that machine and then try to recover those files.
