External hard disk does not show up for copying revised file

#1 Post by anphanhv »

I have already installed ubuntu on my HDD which was a partition of Windows 10 before.
And such a case, all parttions was lost and after reading many suggestion on Internet, I choose Testdisk to recover the lost partition.
Hopefully, after a quick operation with testdisk I can see all file I lost show up on the terminal of testdisk. And I hope I could copy It to
my media (external drive). But I can see my external as a destination show up on the terminal. Maybe I missed some steps.

thank you for your kindly help

Using the file explorer or equivalent, access / mount your external disk.
Under Linux, file system from external disk may be available in a /media, /mnt or /run/media sub-directory.
