Would you attempt to drive a nail by using a screwdriver? This is a valid comparison of what people attempt to do when they try to recover Mac files using a program designed for Windows. Many companies that produce Windows data recovery software try to sell the public on the idea that their programs will also suffice to recover Mac data. This is true on one very small level.

Theoretically if one were to download a Mac recovery program that uses Windows as a platform onto a Windows PC and connect that PC to a Mac it might be able to recognize a few files and recover them. But actual Mac recovery is a far more complicated process. The difficulties involved in recovery of Mac files are much more complicated than can be explained in a simple article. The main point to understand is that unless a software utility specifically loads on to a Mac computer and from that Mac can either connect to your hard drive or access connected devices is not a true Mac recovery program.
