Photorec not recovering anying on multiple drives

#1 Post by CJmartel1976 »

I have been using Testdisk/Photorec for years now and it has always worked perfectly. About a month ago it stopped working on my computer. It launches, looks like it is searching but never recovers anything at all. I have tried it on multiple drives (hooked to the same laptop) and same thing. I tried (as a test) Recuva and it found files. So I am not sure what is wrong. I have even tried running it at administrator and same thing.

Try disabling an antivirus program temporarily.
Download the most recent version of Testdisk, unpack it and run this download.

Please correct your spelling typo in your title.
