This is a Sponsored Review of the Active@ File Recovery Software.

Active@ File Recovery for Windows provides the ability to recover lost files that you lost as a result of an accidental deletion, or a partition format.
Active@ File Recovery comes in 3 different versions – Standard, Professional, and Enterprise. There is a demo version available as well to enable you to evaluate Active File Recovery before you make your purchase decision. The software can be purchased by a credit card payment or a payment via PayPal. The pricing is quite competitive and is as shown below (for 1 license):

The documentation manual is very comprehensive and guides you step-by-step through the entire process of installation and usage.
Taking a quote from the documentation on how it recovers files:
The file recovery process can be briefly described as scanning a drive or folder to find deleted entries in a Root Folder (FAT) or a Master File Table (NTFS). Furthermore, scanning for a particular deleted entry and defining the cluster chain to be recovered and copying the contents of these clusters to the newly created file.
Active@ File Recovery can recover your data if your system is not bootable. This is quite remarkable and very useful. It manages to achieve this by providing a bootable CD/DVD that can be used to boot up the system for the recovery process.
