Folder/file recovery from NTFS HD.
Posted: 04 Mar 2013, 13:45
Hi all. Bit of a mess I got myself in here. I booted a Dell into Puppylinux from a live CD to transfer data from a Windows 7 install before doing an OS re-install. However it turns out the SD card I was moving to is a fake, and the files basically went nowhere. I have another 32Gb card that I know for sure works though.
I haven't touched the HD except for this data "move", so it should be treated as deleted data, is that right? If I want to recover it all then, I should boot to Puppylinux, run testdisk and moved the "deleted" folders to my working SD card? Is this correct?
Can I select entire folders to recover from an NTFS HD or only individual files? I don't need to recover all of the files either, just the deleted ones.
Thanks!
