Hello. I downloaded PhotoRec and it's working much better than I expected. It's quickly filling up the hard drive I designated with recovered files, and it's going to run out of space. I've paused the recovery.
My question: Can I pause the recovery and move the older folders named recup_dir.xxx to another drive to reclaim space? And then resume recovery?
It looks like it builds the folders sequentially, and that as long as I don't move the one(s) currently in use, that this should work.
Thank you. And thank you for this great software...
