That isn't possible, Windows does not allow you to do that. However, I have now discovered that updates can be paused for up to 35 days so hopefully the scan should be long finished by then.

I am unable to give any details about timing because my scan got wiped out by a Windows 10 automatic restart for update.

I wonder, would it be possible to write something into the programme in the event that it is necessary to do a restart so that you could save the partial scan up to that point ...

Thank you for your explanation. I'll come back with the speed details idc.

This is the first time that I have used Testdisk. I am currently running deep scan to see what can be found. After probably two days it has go through 18% of a 6TB drive. Is this normal for it to take that long?

Secondly it is find rather more than I expected and there are a lot of symbols ...
