Acronis Revive 2017 will find and recover lost files
We have quite a few external drives, mostly with content we never use. Backed up old data. It wasn’t that long ago we’d backup data to an external drive long before using the cloud.
You could make use of these drives for other purposes (for example, why not shift your music collection on to one), but you go and wipe the contents and then realize, later, you deleted all your old accounts or important photos. The solution is a file recovery application such as Acronis Revive 2017 -- yes, a brand new consumer tool from Acronis.

Why low-code is key to digital modernization

But low-code isn’t just about "time-to-market." It’s about the agility and innovation that a low-code development paradigm can deliver.
Low-code application development platforms provide a drag-and-drop interface to allow programmers -- or even non-programmers with very little training -- to rapidly create applications, saving time during both development and testing. They are mostly offered as cloud native platforms.
