Over the years, we have witnessed invention of improved storage medias and efficient techniques of data safety. We can also see the impact of technology advancement in our day to day life and in the due course, we have become more educated in it's usage.
However, due to virus/malware intrusion, file system corruption or deletion of any operating system files, loss or inaccessibility of data is quite prevalent. While an updated and valid backup is a necessity, unavailability of the same or failing to restore your valuable data arises the need for a efficient windows data recovery Software.
Scenario of Windows data loss:
After a new installation of a software, you restart the system and the Windows failed to boot up showing an error message. You cannot get into your system and the data in it are thus inaccessible leaving behind the need of Windows data recovery. The error may appear in several different ways. Some of the instances of the error are as below:
"Cannot find hal.dll"
"Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
system32hal.dll.
Please re-install a copy of the above file."
"System32Hal.dll missing or corrupt:
Please re-install a copy of the above file."
"Cannot find WindowsSystem32hal.dll"
Explanation:
The operating system works properly until all it's system files are intact. If any of the files get corrupted/deleted/misplaced, the whole hard drive gets inaccessible. The .hll file implements a number of functions which are to be implemented in different ways by different hardware platforms. Failing to it, may cause inaccessibility of the hard drive.
Causes:
hal.dll file is missing or deleted.
Boot.ini file is deleted/corrupted or misplaced and the operating system is not getting it.
Resolution:
Restart your system.
Go to the BIOS settings and check whether it's configuration is correct.
Try running Windows System Restore from the command prompt.
Through pressing 'R' go to Windows Recovery Console.

Try to restore hal.dll file from Windows installation CD.
When all the above fail, perform a clean installation of Windows.
The process of clean installation of Windows will format the hard drive and all your previously stored data will be gone.
