Did you download and uncompress the 6.14-WIP archive on the website ?
./photorec_static means that you are in the folder where photorec_static is.

try to copy photorec_static in your/home/user folder and verify in properties if executable flag is ticked.

Then,

Code: Select all

sudo ~/photorec_static /dev/yourdisk
should work
