Repair My Word is a freeware tool which recovers data from Microsoft Word files that are corrupt (unreadable etc), its only 1.5mb in terms of size and is portable. It recovers that data of a word file that you open in it and then allows you to save it as a seperate file aswell, some common errors that can be fixed by Repair my Word are:

  • “The document name or path is not valid. Try these suggestions. Check the file permissions for the document or drive. Use the File Open dialog box to locate the document.”
  • “Word cannot open the document.”
  • “Word cannot open the document: user does not have access privileges.”
  • When you attempt to open a Microsoft Word 97 document into Microsoft Word version 6.x or 7.x, the document contains garbage characters.
The File recovery speed is pretty fast and its pretty reliable in terms of data.
