Testdisk 7 (win32) freezed while copying from image
Posted: 15 Aug 2014, 12:08
First of all I would like to thank you very much for this program. I - like many others - tried to refresh my ubuntu insallation and this shameful installer created one huge partition overwriting my windows and data partitions. Thanks to your software and some 30 hours of work I found the partitions, and I see all data in them.
I am working from an image from 2nd sector (i couldnt figure how can I make a whole disk image), but it seems to be working, i find the partitions after selecting correct geometry (WD10JPVT 16h 63s 512b).
Now I move on a huge directory to copy it, and it starts to copy. However I observed two strange behaviours:
after a while the copy stalls, and freezes the whole system, or it begins to rewrite the same file again and again.
I will try linux. Before I try to restore partitions I have to copy everything.
I don't know if its a bug, or it is something with my system.
Also I can't quit from the program, when it doesnt hang the whole system (not even task manager comes up). (press q)
