No file found in partition

[ringoma]

There are 4 partitions I had devided in physical disk 2. Unfortunately, it shows only one drive (75GB) since I lost the partition file. I have tried "Fast Format". It have found 4 partitions. But 2 partitions are showed as empty. While I check the log, it reveals that Recover My File can find the sector range of those 2 partitions, but there are no MTF file can be found.

On the other hand, I tried another recovery software and they can show the file structure in those 2 partition. I want to know is there any ways to put the MTF, which is capture by another software, in the scanning task with Recover My File? So that it can show the file structure and show file name properly. Although I can scan file by the other software, that cannot recover the file name without transcription error.

Thanks.

There is no way to merge the functions of two separate programs.

You should try a "Complete Format Recover". It should get you files back.

oh, I have tried "Complete Recovery" also, it can recover my file, but it seems cannot recover the file structure and the file name. I am not sure for this funtion can or cannot to recover the file name and the structure.

Thanks a lot.

The file name and folder structure is stored in the MFT table. If the MFT table is destroyed or corrupt, it is not possible to get the name and the folder back.

However, the file data can still be recovered using Recover My Files by searching for the file using its header and footer. In such cases the file is give a name like "Recovered_DOC_1". There are some renaming tools available. MassRenamer for office documents is located here: http://www.getdata.com/download.php or www.123renamer.com is also a useful tool.
