How to recover all files from HD with logical errors?
Posted: Mon Jul 26, 2021 12:32 pm
I'm trying to recover all files from a HD that seems to have logical errors from improper removal or possible computer shut off. Windows cant recognize the drive or assign the data partition a letter or read it because of this.
I scanned the drive (scan the entire disk option) and it shows about 175 Recognized "things"? like partitions?
The option "Recover all files" is greyed out for the drive.
An earlier scan selecting the data partition only said "The selected disk does not contain any supported file systems or the file system is corrupted.
Select the scan command from the drive menu to find all partitions that have ever been located on the same disk space."
I can see files, do I have to copy all 175 Recognized things one at a time, or is there a way to do them all at once? or how do I know which to copy?
Each of these things contains groups of files with some folder structure, but all seem some what incomplete with other things containing the other files.
I'm trying this on 2 hard drives with the same problem, 1 is 2gb full (shows about 400 thing partitions?) and the other is a 240GB SATA SDD
also, does "Extra search for know file types" option, create doubles in a folder? or is it needed?
Any help would be welcome, I'm trying to learn this software.
