Files missing when looking at list
Posted: 13 Apr 2019, 02:54
I have a 2TB WD Passport external hard drive and I'm sure it's partially corrupted.
I've used TestDisk to copy over about 80% of the files that were on my hard drive, but two folders in particular appear to be empty. I know those files are "there" since I can sometimes access them when I (slowly) browse the hard drive through Windows Explorer, but I of course can't copy/move them over.
Are these files lost and do I just use PhotoRec to try and salvage whatever I can?
