I am simply running through the walkthrough on the site, but when I get to the end, TestDisk doesn't restart the computer, and it doesn't do anything when I manually restart

I am trying to restore a damaged filesystem, no issues other than the not writing the partition, I figure I am missing something, also I am running it as an admin

here is my configuration
Seagate USB 3 Expansion drive 2TB
NTFS format
tried it on my windows 7 desktop and my windows xp laptop same results

When TestDIsk has found your partition, have you been able to list your files (press 'p') ?
