Lexar Image Rescue 2.0 - Manual (Page 6)

Extensive Search – This option performs the most comprehensive search, and
scans every block of memory attempting to recover all possible image data on
the card. This can often result in leftover image fragments being recovered as
well as complete images.
For both Low Level Search and Extensive Search – JPEG images will be
recovered with a .jpg extension. TIFF and RAW files are recovered with a .tif
extension. If you are recovering RAW files from a specific camera, you will need
to change the extension to the native RAW format such as .NEF, .DCS, .CRW etc.
