How to Recover MDF Databases?

Run the SQL recovery application and select the MDF file for recovery. The SQL recovery software scans and scrutinizes the corrupted or damaged MDF file and then exports all the available data from the file. The database and its objects can be saved by selecting ‘Recover Database’ or ‘Recover checked’ option.

Geeksnerds SQL recovery software is integrated with two modes of saving: ‘Recover database only’ and ‘Generate scripts and recover database’. The ‘Recover database only’ option directly saves the scanned database in Microsoft SQL server. The ‘Generate scripts and recover database’ option firstly saves SQL scripts in Query format in a text file and then saves the database in Microsoft SQL database server.

Database Recovery Options:

The SQL recovery software is also encapsulated with two types of recovery options: Normal and Advanced. Normal recovery option is relatively faster and is endorsed for normal or minor corruption of SQL server databases (.mdf, .ndf). Advanced recovery option is recommended for deleted records and highly corrupted databases.
