## Search for lost Mac files with EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard for Mac 20
EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard for Mac 20 scans storage for deleted or lost files and provides search, filtering, and supported-file previews before selected recovery. It focuses on the macOS recovery workflow.
Start with the location where data disappeared. A result entry is a candidate to inspect, not a guarantee that the original contents remain intact.
## Preserve the affected source
Avoid saving new files to the storage you want to recover. New writes can replace data that may otherwise remain available after deletion.
Do not save recovered output back to the original source, and avoid installing software onto the affected drive where practical. Prepare another destination with enough capacity before starting recovery.
## Choose the drive and scan scope
Quick and deeper scanning examine the selected source for lost data. Published Mac support includes APFS, HFS+, and exFAT storage.
Check which device you selected, especially when several external drives are attached. Do not format a disk merely because it is difficult to access; investigate detection and preserve its current state first.
## Filter results and inspect previews
Results can be viewed by file type or path and narrowed by details such as size and dates. Previews are available for supported images, documents, and videos.
If original folder information has been lost, some results may have generated names. Inspect content instead of relying only on the name, and open saved copies in their normal applications to verify them.
## Keep useful scan records
The Search Record workflow saves completed scan results for later loading. This can help you revisit findings without immediately repeating the same search.
A scan record is not a backup of the files listed. Preserve the source and check that the selected record still corresponds to the device and data you intend to recover.
## Review image and advanced recovery options
Mac documentation describes creating a backup image and scanning that image for recovery. Additional recovery workflows depend on the installed build and edition.
Save an image outside the source storage and verify the available workflow before relying on it. For a device showing physical failure symptoms, consider specialist recovery before repeated scans or imaging attempts.
## Choose the platform and recovery plan deliberately
For Windows, see [EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard 20](https://find-your-software.com/easeus/data-recovery-wizard-20/) . Its controls and capabilities should not be assumed identical to this Mac application.
Review the selected Mac license and our [file-backup guide](https://find-your-software.com/solutions/how-to-backup-files.html) . Recovery depends on surviving data and storage condition; keep independent copies so scanning is not your only option after a loss.
