Kingston SE9 G2 64GB USB 3.0 Partition Recovery issue

Hi,
I am new to this forum so welcome everyone.
My pendrive has become unavailable for unknown reason. I've followed this instruction as I had just the same symptomes.
http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step
During the process I have successfuly recovered part of the partition. The pendrive is now accesible but I can see only few files.
In windows explorer it displays the following:
- explorer.jpg (13.81 KiB) Viewed 3343 times
It seems that files are there are only 13.9GB is free!
Yet when I access it I see only few files.
This is what testdisk analysis is returning:
- ts1.jpg (92.16 KiB) Viewed 3343 times
And results of quick search:
- qs1.jpg (118.8 KiB) Viewed 3343 times
Can you please advise what I can do?
Thank you!

Run "cmd" (right click "run as administator") and "chkdsk /f e:".
Windows explorer may hide some files/directory by default:

Thank you for quick reply.
Unfortunately I've tried running chkdsk before and I am getting this:
Code: Select all
Windows cannot run disk checking on this volume because it is write protected.
I am not able to take down the "Current Read-Only state: Yes" flag. I have tried diskpart, rmPrepUSB, and registry change. The flag is still there:
- dp1.jpg (47.43 KiB) Viewed 3335 times
Also I did apply change to hidden files visibiity with no luck. I have even applied it for operating system files but there is nothing more appearing.

By the way - when I run files recovery all the other files are recovering! So it seems that everything is there I just cant access it. I would prefer to access those files instead of running restore operation as many system files (for example from some apps) won't get restored. Hence I am doing what I can to fix the structure without data restoration.

Try to remove the readonly flag:
<pre>
att vol clear readonly
</pre>
To access the files you have copied, you may to take ownership of the files (ie.

Hi,
Sorry you might have missed that but I have tried many options to remove this att. Unfortunately nothing helps...
I am not able to take down the "Current Read-Only state: Yes" flag. I have tried diskpart, rmPrepUSB, and registry change. The flag is still there...
