For windows machines, chkdsk /r command is good enough in terms of fixing bad sectors. Linux have other free alternatives.

Limitations:

· Only one bad sector will be regenerated

Other free alternatives that work on Windows overcome that limitation.

Any user has given this a spin?

I have never tried it but like Bioz posted the limitations would make me pass on this one.The price is a bit excessive also.

I have tried it many times and fixed 4 hard drives.
If you have a hard drive having bad sectors
Then you should try it once

So HDD Regenerator 2011 is poorly maintained (the latest update was on September 1st, 2010 ), is very expensive (59.95$ ) and Windows can easily do recover any bad sectors by its own ...so why would you use this product and much less pay for it?
How did you find this product?

+1. As an alternative, you can click the Start button, then click on Computer , then right-click the hard disk drive (C:\) that you want to check, and then click Properties.

I have been working in Irrigation Department in my conutry and i was record keeper of My Divison;
My Pc's hard disk was haveing read errors.
I Tried all methods including CHKDSK/r but i wasn't able to access my data because of hard disk errors.
Then my IT Specialist provided this software.
I used it and after using this i was able to access and modify data.
So for me this was helpful and then i thought i should share this.
