First of all this is an awesome product. I've been looking for years for a free and simple file recovery program and this is the first.

In the drop down list of drives Recuva does not detect if you have inserted or removed a USB or any other type of drive while the program is open. If you attempt to scan a USB drive that is in the list after you have removed it, the program will crash.

Confirmed. A really nasty bug.

This has been fixed and will be in the next release due very shortly.
Thanks for testing

Thanks for the patch.

However, I think that this issue could be fixed a little more. If you select a removable disk in the selector and after that, at the same time, remove the disk and click at Scan button, the program will still crash.

I believe that would be needed to check, when click in the button, if the selected disk exists and, if is the case, generate an appropriate error message for such.
