Recovering fixed-size file with no header

#1 Post by davideddu »

Hello,
is it possible to have photorec find a file only looking at its size? I'm trying to recover my Android SD card encryption keys. They appear to be stored in 16 byte files which only contain the 128 bit encryption key.

Does it support this kind of lookup?

Thank you

Davide
