I don't see box for overwriting and I am using the latest version, just got it. I need to restore folders, so I checked that box. If this box is also applicable to secure overwrite - Recuva is not for me.

Hi Is it possible to prevent erasing original files, or it will be done by default? I am trying to recover 2TB+ of accidentally deleted video files on the brand new hard drive (there were nothing on that drive prior to those video files). I used Wizard, so I did not see any options in advance. After scan was complete, I went to options and under Folder recovery there is an option on how to erase original files - I don't want to erase them, because if Recuva would not recover those files (as I seen in this forum, some mp4 files are not readable, and I have hundreds of mp4 files), I will have an option to try something else. IF Recuva overwrite those files, this is it. Any suggestions appreciated.
