Re: Create new partition and recover files in the same drive

Yup it all looks good in CrystalDiskInfo. Also in the event viewer there's nothing related to a hard drive.

Re: Create new partition and recover files in the same drive

Thank you Fiona, chkdsk was able to recover the entire partition!

This is is the second time this happens, the first time occured after migrating a Windows partition into another drive, Windows decided that this "storage" drive was the boot drive and tried to repair it during boot. TestDisk was ...
