ArchiveHive 2.0.0

2026-09-29T00:00:00Z

Browse and extract individual files, import supported disk images, and preserve more source media.

Browse archives and recover selected files or folders in both native apps and the command line. Capture-time catalogs support library search.
Individual-file readers cover FAT12/16/32, exFAT, bounded NTFS, classic HFS, HFS+ and ext2/3/4. APFS is detected but cannot yet be extracted.
Import supported E01, fixed or dynamic VHD, and standalone VHDX images from the command line. Differencing images and active VHDX logs remain unsupported.
Capture readable data sectors from optical and floppy sources. Audio tracks, subchannels and floppy flux are outside this support.
Optional allocation-priority rescue reads allocated extents first, then sweeps remaining space. Windows can capture NTFS volumes through per-volume VSS snapshots.
Preservation records, portable copy history, recovery-dependency notes and BagIt exports help document and hand off an archive.
New captures use a 2.x licence. Reading, verifying, repairing, extracting and resuming existing captures remain free. ArchiveHive 2.0 continues to read earlier archives.
