Hi Graham
I am not sure what i am doing wrong, I re ran the full format recover and stopped it when it got to 100000, it then completed the search and then i clicked to save the items.
It seemed to create Partion 1,2,3 - Allot of the partions seemed the same.
Based on the folder icons and file icons is seemed like it recovered the files correctly, but when i try to open the files after saving they seem to be corrupt.
On the most basic file type like *.txt the content seems like greek ?
Any ideas why the file are corrupt when the software shows then as ok?
I will run it for the 4th and possibly final time but not sure what to do differently... It's taking 1-2 days to do a "stopped" searching "recovery"
Should I narrow the search down to only NTFS to speed up the searching etc?
Why is it creating a number of partitions with similiar data?
Will it recover the original files date stamp? I am trying to combine the 3 partitions into 1 after the save but seem to have clashing file date stamps?
Please advise
Thanks
Vernon
