Hello!
Please let me know if you know data recovery GNU GPL (or other free software license) software. Like for instance to recover a corrupted MS Word file. Somebody asked me this.
I am interested also in freeware or other useful things, preferably for GNU/Linux.
Ultimate Boot CD is what I use for anything recovery related.
- Bacula (program)
system: windows - linux - mac
prog_lang: c++
last ver: 5.2.6 in 2012-02-22
website: heeeer (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bacula/files/bacula/)
- Redo Backup and Recovery (full linux system)
system: linux
last ver: 1.0.2 in 2012-01-03
website: heeeer (http://sourceforge.net/projects/redobackup/files/)
Before you start back up.
regards
Thank you!
"Repair Word file free" may help: you need to download the second file in following page
http://www.repairwordfiles.com/
I've found it's suggestion here
http://www.fileguru.com/Repair-Word-File-Free/info
It seems to be able to extract text data from corrupted file (so, if the file contains images, the problem may be unresolved)
Other software I can suggest has been reviewed here:

and here
http://www.chiccheinformatiche.com/recuperare-documenti-microsoft-office-e-open-office-danneggiati-coffice2txt/#more-2101
it's coffice2txt, the third title in following page
http://godskingsandheroes.info/software/
together other softwares to be explored
I'm not sure that these softwares are GNU GPL.
Thank you, mbarsan!
