Restored wrong table

#1 Post by cyfuser »

In my sleep deprived stupidity i wrote the wrong table on my 2tb drive in testdisk. There was some old partition i deleted awhile ago that restored OVER the partition i lost and im trying to get back however i did make a backup in testdisk before i did that but when i try to use the backup it says bad structure.

Is there anyway to force the backup to overwrite the table even though it says bad?
