Upload modern corrupt office suite files for text or data salvaging.  Despite file corruption, it may be possible to avoid retyping or re-entering your data. 

The file uploader currently shows no progress on the screen despite successfully working in the background.

This service is designed to work with  corrupt Office Open XML Microsoft Office 2007 and 2010 - DOCX, XLSX and PPTX  format files and their variants.  It succeeds where the respective MS Office 2007 or 2010 application fails to salvage the text/data. 

Additionally, this service will extract text and data from intact non-corrupt files. For non-corrupt files, it will additionally work with Open Office Version 2.X and 3.X - ODT, ODS and ODP and their variant files. Also it works as a standard text extractor for MS Word 97-2003 DOC and RTF format files.  Finally it will even extract text or data from Open Office Version 1.X - SXW, SXC and SXI extension files and their variants.  With all the additional format files mentioned in this paragraph there is a possibility for extracting information from corrupt files but is unlikely to be successful. 

Four alternative results are returned for docx files, one for xlsx and three for pptx.  two result are returned for odt, ods, odp, doc and rtf files.  The alternative results are arrived at via different coding algorithms so they may produce different results.

Also for local work or if this service does not work, try the freeware Damaged docx2txt and Corrupt xlsx2csv which use different code from this service and may produce better results.*

If none of these free methods work I recommend trying the demos for the commercial WordFix, or ExcelFix.  For PowerPoint recovery or other commercial recovery software and service vendors try these links: Corrupt File Recovery Services and Corrupt File Commercialware.
