**NEW** Savvy Corrupt DOCX Word Recovery
Download Link: savvy_word_recovery_0.8.3_setup.exe
Description: Savvy Corrupt DOCX Recovery, automatically recovers corrupt docx files. The program automaticallyuses four different progressively more basic algorithms until the final method hopes only to recover text, no formatting.Docx files are in reality zipped collections of mostly xml files. The text is mainly concentrated in the document.xmlfile.
If it is partially corrupt, for instance ending with inappropriate XML tags, Word will often not open the docx.Savvy Word Recovery will remove the corrupt xml from the document.xml, automatically add the correct endingtags and try to open the resulting docx document with the probably truncated text.If other xml files such as the styles.xml file are corrupt, Word will also sometimes also refuse to open the file.
SavvyCorrupt DOCX Recovery knows to remove these ancillary to the main document.xml files. After the removal, Word will often then be able to open the docx file while regenerating default versions of styles.xml etc. files.Finally the program also has a shortcut to the effective commercial WordFix program made by the corrupt file recovery company with which I have the best affiliate relationship.
WordFix and this program differs from Corrupt MS Office Extractorand Corrupt Office Salvager from below in that they are sometimes able to recover formatting as well as the text.I also do manual recoveries for $22 only if I succeed to your satisfaction.
Title: Excel Recovery
Download Link: excel_recovery_setup_3.0.exe
Description: Microsoft recommends several methods for recovering Excel data from corrupt spreadsheets here(for Excel 2002 and 2003) and here (for Excel 2007 and 2010).
Excel Recovery makes it easy to follow these recommendations for saving and reopening your file in the SYLK and HTML formats, opening the corrupt workbook with calculations to manual or in safe mode, opening in the Excel Viewer or WordPad, opening the file in open and repair or open and extract data modes, and using the external references method.
The application adds two methods of its own for data extraction and one for XLSX zip repair using included command line apps. Additionally it has its own native previous file version recovery tool which works in any version of Vista and Windows 7. It also features a temporary file searcher which looks for typical Excel temporary files that might be created that might contain your data. It leaves out macro chart data recovery method which I'm working on...
This program differs from Corrupt Office Salvager, Corrupt Office Extractor and Corrupt XLSX Salvager in that it addition to the methods those program use Excel Recovery invokes methods that rely on Excel itself, the Excel Viewer or WordPad.Also Excel Recovery using Excel to do its recovery work, should allow a greater chance of recovering formatting. Itshould be noted the Excel methods often don't work however this is the app to try to get all of my Excel tricks in oneeasy to use app.
The software has been updated with more features and a link to the effective commercial
ExcelFix.
Download Link: corrupt_office_2007_text_extractor.exe
Description: This is a GUI powerhouse program for recovering text and images and repairing zip and XML structure of corrupt MS Office 2007 and 2010 format files (docx, xlsx, pptx). Some advanced XML knowledge may be needed to repair the XML files.The program uses no-frills unzipper to unzip corrupt Office Open, docx, xlsx and pptx files.
Corrupt Office Salvager above uses the slightly better 7zip for unzipping so is more likely to extract text/data from corrupt files than this program, however, this one can extract images and even allows you to attempt to repair the XML structure if you know how to do this. I now do recommend a zip repair step before trying the text extraction.
If this and all the other relevant programs on this list don't work (there is a lot of scope overlap mind you) or you need format recovery, try the sometimes successful commercial
Recoveronix Online Repair which is free until 05/01/2013 with coupon code "S2SERVICES" a $39 value!
I also do manual recoveries and charge only $22 if I succeed to your satisfaction.
Title: Corrupt Office Salvager Download Link: corrupt_office_salvager_setup_1.0.exe
Description: Thank you to Make Use of for mentioning us in Cool Websites and Tools!...
This program will extract the text even from damaged or corrupted Microsoft Office and Open Office files 2.X and 3.X files with the extensions .doc, docx, xls, xlsx, ppt, pptx, odt, ods and odp as well as possibly the template and macro variants of these extensions such as dot, xlt and pps if they are changed to the correct corresponding extensions mentioned.
It may succeed at doing so where MS Office Open Office itself fails to salvage text. It can also attempt to recover formatting in the form of a full Open Office file with a regular, odt, ods or odp extension. At this time unfortunately there is no facility for recovering anything but basic formatting for MS Office files through the previously mentioned text extractions.
This program can be used as a viewer of text within healthy MS Office and Open Office files without having MS Office or Open Office installed. The text extraction is accomplished with the use of the command line application, SILVERCODERS DocToText. The program also uses command line tools from CMD Corrupt OfficeOpen2txt, The Chicago and the Apache Itika Projects to extract data and text from MS Office version 97-2010 format files.
The reconstructed version of the Open Office file is accomplished by unzipping the Open Office file with the somewhat zip corruption immune 7zipunzipper. Once unzipped, the manifest/manifest.xml file is replaced with a greatly simplified version as described here: http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=57600If this application doesn't work for Open Office files, there are other things worth trying as summarized here: http://s2services.com/open_office.htm.
If it doesn't work for MS Word files, try here: http://s2services.com/word_repair.htm.
If it doesn't work for Excel files look at other alternative steps here: http://s2services.com/excel.htm.
If this and all the other relevant programs on this list don't work or you need format recovery, try Repair Corrupted File ONLINE. Use the coupon code "S2SERVICES" for free recovery until Sept. 1, 2012!
I also accept manual recovery requests ($22 if successful) which can be sent here.
**NEW** Title: Vista Previous Version File Recoverer
Download Link: vista_previous_versions_recvr_setup.exe
Description: Starting with Vista, Windows allows the recovering of previous versions of files without a dedicated backup. These previous versions are stored whenever a Restore Point is made by the system or manually made by the user from the System Protection tab of the System App in the Control Panel.
These previous versions can be recovered in Vista and Windows 7 by merely right clicking the target file and choosing "Restore previous versions." This feature is unavailable in Vista Home Basic and Home Premium, hence the need for this program.Vista Home Basic and Premium Previous Version File Recoverer works with the other versions of Windows Vista and Windows 7, so if you find it easier to use then right clicking on files in Explorer then by all means do so.
The application however rebuilds the index each time you invoke it which is time consuming. Windows however may do the same thing. It may even work with certain version of XP when on business networks where previous version recovery is available through a 2003 or later Microsoft Server installation, although I'm unsure if this is true or not.
A similar program to this one is Shadow Explorer: http://www.shadowexplorer.com/.
You might find that program more comprehensive because it exposes all previous versions of files in an Explorer-like interface, although as discussed later this program does so also. In contrast to Shadow Explorer, the present program only returns previous versions within its GUI window that are different whereas Shadow Explorer requires you to choose a restore point in date and time and look to see if a previous version is actually different from the file you are working with. Using Shadow Explorer may be more time consuming then using Vista Home Basic and Premium Previous Version File Recoverer. S
**NEWLY UPDATED**
Title: Corrupt DOCX Salvager
Download Link: corrupt_docx2txt_setup.exe
Description: This GUI program will extract text from damaged/corrupted Word files formatted in the new docx format where Word itself fails.
Docx files are actually zipped collections of XML files. XML as a format is unforgiving of data corruption. The main text in docx files is found in document.xml file in the collection. Corrupt DOCX Salvager uses 7zip, an unzipper that will unzip partially corrupt document.xml files. Also the Perl routine used to extract the text from the document.xml file doesn't care about well-formedness of the XML, a stumbling block of Word 2007 and 2010.
Finally an effective zip repair pretreatment that uses the InfoZip zip.exe -FF command, has just been added.
If Corrupt DOCX Salvager fails, or you need more formatting recovered, try Recoveronix for free with coupon code "S2SERVICES" or ask me to recover the file manually. I charge only $22 and only if you are satisfied with the success.
Corrupt XLSX Salvager
Download Link: corrupt_xlsx_salvager_vers_2.0_setup.exe
Description: Corrupt XLSX Salvager is a freeware GUI program for salvaging the data from corrupt Excel 2007 files. Xlsx Excel 2007 files are really zipped collections of XML files.
The main raw data is contained in the sharedStrings and numbered worksheet XML files. XML is a very unforgiving medium when it comes to data corruption, thus if the sharedStrings and or worksheet XML files become corrupt, Excel has difficulty recovering the unformatted data.Corrupt XLSX Salvager uses a command line unzipping program that will unzip partially corrupt worksheet[#].xml and sharedStrings.xml files.
Also the Perl data extraction routines don't use XML techniques that care about well formed XML, a stumbling block for other Excel 2007 recovery programs.If Corrupt XLSX Salvager doesn't work, or you need formatting, try Recoveronix' Service with free coupon "S2SERVICES".
CMD Corrupt OfficeOpen2txt
Download Link: coffec_cmd.zip
Description: Perfect for online scripts and services needing text or data extraction from both corrupt or healthy docx, xlsx or pptx files.Coded by Ccy, author of HaHa Zip and using Delphi Zip, CMD Corrupt OfficeOpen2Txt will often recover text from corrupt "Office Open" format files where the respective Microsoft Office 2007 or 2010 programs cannot salvage the text or data.
Office Open format files are zipped collections of XML files. There are two kinds of corruption of these types of files, zip structure corruption and XML corruption. This program deals with both. The unzipping module used in Office 2007 and 2010, is more finicky than InfoZip module used by CMD Corrupt OfficeOpen2Txt.
Thus the collection of files making up the docx, xlsx or pptx file can be extracted as raw material for data/text extraction in the programs 2nd stage. MS Office doesn't even get this far sometimes.In regards to XML corruption, the format is by design a very unforgiving medium for file damage. From the errors returned from attempts at salvaging the text from Office 2007 and 2010 it appears Microsoft is using a fairly standard interpreter of XML even when encountering corruption. CMD Corrupt OfficeOpen2Txt on the other hand does not get hung up by so call XML issues of "well formatting". It simply removes the tags from the data and text as far as possible, ignoring badly formed tag issues.
Corrupt PPTX Salvager
Download Link: corrupt_pptx_salvager_1.0.exe
Description: Corrupt PPTX Salvager is based on Pptx to Text converter by Sopan Shewal.
His sourceforge project is here.This projects differs from Sopan's project because it uses 7zip, an unzipper that's relatively more imperviousto zip corruption than PowerPoint's built in one seems to be. PPTX files seem to have zip corruption as theirbiggest cause of corruption.
7zip is able to extract the xml slide files from the pptx where PowerPoint 2007and 2010 sometimes fails with its.Furthermore the program uses regular expressions to extract the text from the XML slide files rather than the stricter XML reading routines that PowerPoint appears to be using.
So sometimes when PowerPoint signals an unreadable XML error, these programs still extract useful text.If the program fails, try the commercial Recoveronix service. It's free until 05/01/2013 with coupon code "S2SERVICES"!

"By Martin Brinkmann on November 11, 2012 - Tags:microsoft excel, Microsoft Office, Windows tips, word
Interrupted transfers, system crashes while editing documents or malware may corrupt Office documents on your system. When Office fails to open a document that it opened previously or supports, you know that something is not right. While you could try a program like File Repair to recover data from corrupt documents, you can alternatively try to fix the issue by yourself, provided that the damaged documents are stored in docx, pptx or xlsx format on your hard drive.
The following method won't bring back the document in its original form. What you may be able to do however is to extract contents like text or media from the document.
Docx, xlsx and pptx files are archives that contain a number of files when extracted. We use this to our advantage to extract the contents of a damaged document to the system to see if the data we need to access is recoverable.
The easiest way to do that is when you have 7-Zip or a comparable archiving software installed on your system. If you do, all that needs to be done is to right-click the document and select 7-Zip > Extract to from the Windows Explorer context menu.
If you have another application installed or use the default Windows tool to extract archives you may need to rename the file extension of the document to .zip before you can extract the contents.
If the extraction is successful, you end up with a number of files and folders that you can browse. The important folders and files are:
word > document.xml which contains the text of the Word docx document
word > media which lists the media embedded in the Word document
xl > worksheets > sheet[X].xml which contains the spreadsheet data of sheet X
ppt > media which lists the media embedded in the PowerPoint presentation
ppt > slides which contains the data of each slide
You may want to explore the folder structure for additional data that you want to recover. Trying to extract the contents of a corrupt Office document is definitely worth a try before you use third party software to recover the data. Note that the manual option described in this tutorial works under all operating systems, not only Windows."

When Office fails to open a document that it opened previously or supports, you know that something is not right. While you could try a program like File Repair to recover data from corrupt documents, you can alternatively try to fix the issue by yourself, provided that the damaged documents are stored in docx, pptx or xlsx format on your hard drive.
The following method won't bring back the document in its original form. What you may be able to do however is to extract contents like text or media from the document.
Docx, xlsx and pptx files are archives that contain a number of files when extracted. We use this to our advantage to extract the contents of a damaged document to the system to see if the data we need to access is recoverable.
The easiest way to do that is when you have 7-Zip or a comparable archiving software installed on your system. If you do, all that needs to be done is to right-click the document and select 7-Zip > Extract to from the Windows Explorer context menu.
If you have another application installed or use the default Windows tool to extract archives you may need to rename the file extension of the document to .zip before you can extract the contents.
If the extraction is successful, you end up with a number of files and folders that you can browse. The important folders and files are:
word > document.xml which contains the text of the Word docx document
word > media which lists the media embedded in the Word document
xl > worksheets > sheet[X].xml which contains the spreadsheet data of sheet X
ppt > media which lists the media embedded in the PowerPoint presentation
ppt > slides which contains the data of each slide
You may want to explore the folder structure for additional data that you want to recover. Trying to extract the contents of a corrupt Office document is definitely worth a try before you use third party software to recover the data. Note that the manual option described in this tutorial works under all operating systems, not only Windows."

Easy Office Recovery is a universal and multi purpose Office Recovery program, which focuses on restoring and repairing damaged and deleted Microsoft Office files, such as files of Excel, Outlook and PowerPoint and it’s capable of repairing even the most devastating file damaging cases. Where the built-in tools stand no chance, Easy Office recovery is powerful enough to perform the most difficult Outlook repair, as well as Excel and PowerPoint restoration.
It was designed as a standalone program, running automatically so that the end user could recover files with as little effort as possible. A simple interface makes it easy to run the program with no additional help required. The program works with all types of storage devices, including those that cannot be accessed or are corrupted. Thanks to the innovative recovery algorithms, the search can be performed even on large hard drives and it doesn’t matter how fragmented the data is, the program can get it back in place.
Microsoft Office Recovery can be accomplished in short time, the registered version had no restrictions on the number of files that can be recovered. The program has a full preview, with charts and pictures, letting a user find out whether the files are recoverable in advance.

"For a long time I’ve been looking for a program that can recover deliberately removed email messages from an outlook archive. I’m sure open to suggestions for this and I’ll try todays giveaway to see what it can offer. Also, despite low appreciation here on GOTD, I think it is a good idea to have specialized software to repair corrupted office documents (especially important containers like outlook’s PST archives).
So yeah,
Peace ìf your software is any good ;p"
