HOW IT WORKS

Step-by-Step

Submit your file

Use the Submit File form to upload the damaged or broken file. Include a short description of the problem - for example, "file throws an error when opened" or "formatting broken after export from InDesign." If you have a reference version or sample of what the output should look like, include that as well.

We accept files up to standard submission size limits. For large files or bulk batches, contact us before submitting.
We analyze and fix the issue
After receiving your file, we assess the nature of the problem. Most repairs involve structural correction, encoding adjustment, or format normalization. We do not recreate content - we work on what exists in the file and restore it to a functional state.

For straightforward repairs, turnaround is one business day. For complex or partially damaged files, we will contact you with an assessment and timeline before proceeding.
Receive the corrected file
Once the file is repaired, we send you the corrected version. Before delivery, we verify that the file opens correctly in the intended application and that the content matches the original.

If full restoration is not possible - for example, where data has been overwritten - we will deliver what can be recovered and explain what could not be restored.

Example Case

Scenario:

An accounting team exports a quarterly report from their internal system to XLSX. The file opens in Excel but all formula references are broken, two worksheets are missing, and date columns display as integers.

What we did:

We identified the export configuration error that caused formula references to shift, recovered the missing sheet data from the workbook's internal cache, and corrected the date format mapping. The corrected file was returned with all formulas intact, all worksheets present, and dates displaying correctly.

Result: The team received a working XLSX file without needing to re-export or manually rebuild the report.
