DiskSalv 4 Release 13.6 Freeware
Copyright 1994-1995 by Dave Hayne
DiskSalv is a disk recovery program. Its main purpose is to recover
AmigaDOS disk integrity when a disk fails, or when impossible, the data
from a failed disk. The name DiskSalv is short for Disk Salvage.
Originally, DiskSalv's only function was to extract as much data from a
failed disk as possible and copy this information to another disk.
DiskSalv 4 has extended this function in various ways. It can recover
deleted files from an undamaged disk, which is often a more common need
than failure recovery. In many cases, DiskSalv can fix a damaged disk
in-place, rather than copy out its contents to another volume. In
these days of multi-gigabyte hard disk drives, that's an important concern.
Finally, DiskSalv 4 adds a number of related features. It can find
partitions on a disk, even when AmigaDOS can't. It can report errors
on a disk without repairing them for you. It can backup an AmigaDOS volume
to any AmigaDOS disk or tape device.
DiskSalv 4 is now freeware, as posted by the author on amiga.org:

"This never quite made it out as a freebie, but it should have. DiskSalv 4
is free for any use.
While this is on "The Deathbed Vigil" DVD, it's not widely known. And it's
probably pirated widely, but now that's legal.
(...)
This is public domain... all are free to copy this anywhere, etc."
Thanks Dave!
