DAR is a free and open-source data recovery software that can recover lost or deleted files from hard drives, USB drives, and other storage devices. It supports a wide range of file systems, including NTFS, FAT32, and HFS+. DAR is easy to use and can be used to recover files that have been deleted accidentally, formatted, or lost due to a virus or malware attack. DAR Disk Archive can create a compressed archive of all your files and folders and the contents of other disk drives on your Mac. You can also use DAR to restore your files and folders from an archive.

DAR Disk Archive stores all of the data in a single file on your Mac's hard drive or on a disk drive. Because the archive is in a compressed format, it is typically much smaller than the original data. The archive file is designed to be portable, so you can copy it to another disk drive or transfer it over a network. The archive format uses the ".dar" extension. DAR is a command-line utility, so you will need to use the Terminal application to run it. DAR is available for free download from the Mac App Store.
