Does anyone know how to recover data files from a floppy disk that are either corrupted or badly damaged? I've tried a lot of programs but they all have to buy to recover the files. I don't mind buying the program but i don't know if it acutally works. So if anyone knows how to fix or have a good program i could possibly use?

I think it would be iffy at best. The disk may be old or have been damaged by heat. If you find any programs that have a free trial, you could try it. If it is really important (can't loose) you may want to take it to the pro's, but they are not cheap.
