Data Recovery
Hi,
1024k (is actually 1mb).
The reason that you are getting this size is that it is set as the "default" file size for these types of files: e.g., Recover My Files scan down the disk, finds a .max file header, and then starts looking for the footer. It travels a further 1mb down the disk and does not find the footer - it thinks that the .max files are usually less than 1mb in size, so at that point it stops looking for the footer, gives the file the default size, and starts looking for the next header.
You can change the default file size by going to OPTIONS > SEARCH > 1. make sure there is a tick in "Search for lost files", 2. take the tick out of "try and determine the file size of lost files" and then set the file size to be slightly larger than you biggest file.
Once you save these files, the applications should open them and ignore any unused data at the end of the file. Then when you save the file, it should go back to its correct size.
Good luck.
