Re: External Hard Drive missing files but disk space is used
I've tried using multiple AVI / MP4 repair tools and identification tools and it seems like the file is just corrupt. I'm guessing I must have accidentally used my corrupt drive without realizing it was corrupt, and bytes must have been mis-set here and there. I'm starting to think these are ...

Re: External Hard Drive missing files but disk space is used
My apologies. SOL means "shit out of luck."
I had an option to copy files after selecting a partition. Attached is a screenshot of the current process of recovering files; however some files like .avi and .mp4s cannot be played. I'm hoping a mp4 or avi repair tool can help... but it seems like many ...

External Hard Drive missing files but disk space is used
Hi forum,
I have a situation where my external hard drive used to have a bunch of folders of files, but now those folders are missing (recently had a power outage and I reckon this may have affected the hard drive somehow).
It reports that it has used X TB of data, but when I select all my files ...
