Release Notes for HstEx® Version 5.4

We are pleased to announce the release of HstEx® Version 5.4, which includes significant updates and improvements to our browser artefact recovery tool.


New Artefacts Recovered

HstEx® Version 5.4 now includes support for the recovery of 96 new artefacts, expanding our capabilities to recover data from a wider range of sources.

Improved Data Verification and Recovery Accuracy

We have implemented improvements to our data verification and recovery accuracy on carved artefacts, ensuring that recovered data is more reliable and accurate than ever before. Our unique Intelli-Carve® engine has been revised and improved.

Improved Recovery of Specific Browser Data Entries

HstEx® Version 5.4 includes improvements to the recovery of Yandex Login Data entries, Firefox on iOS Login entries, Microsoft Edge Collections entries, and Firefox History entries across all platforms. This means that users can now recover these types of data more easily and effectively.

New Browser Support

HstEx® Version 5.4 now supports the recovery of Brave on iOS History entries, Opera on iOS History entries, Opera Crypto Browser on iOS History entries, and Opera GX on iOS History entries, providing our users with more comprehensive coverage of browser artefact recovery. We have also included support for recovering Microsoft Edge Navigation History entries.

UI Improvements

We have improved the Recovery Job user interface by adding a toggle switch on the toolbar to allow selected recovery profiles to be displayed; this makes it much easier to identify which recovery profiles have been selected.


Overall, HstEx® Version 5.4 represents a significant step forward in our efforts to provide the most comprehensive and effective browser artefact recovery tool on the market. We hope that our users will find these updates and improvements useful and we look forward to continuing to evolve and improve HstEx® in future releases.
