To recover data from a crashed hard drive manually, first, try using the built-in Windows Recovery options. Boot your computer from a recovery drive, select "Troubleshoot," then "Advanced options," and choose "System Image Recovery" or "Startup Repair." If these methods fail, consider connecting the hard drive to another computer as a secondary drive to retrieve files. For a more reliable solution, use the BLR Data Recovery Tool. Install the software, select the crashed hard drive, and initiate a deep scan. BLR Data Recovery Tool will efficiently locate and recover deleted files, even from damaged drives, ensuring comprehensive data restoration.
