QPhotoRec 7.1 stuck in loop 11%-17%

#1 Post by caeliyukii »

Hi,
I have been running this program for almost 28 days now. It has managed to find many files but I wasn't sure that it should be taking this long.
I am trying to recover a 2tb drive that suddenly became raw. Testdisk was not able to detect any files other than some random DLL files if i remember right.

Is there something I can do to speed up the process?

Thank you

Sorry mods, you can close this thread now.

The program completed scanning the rest of the sectors on day 29.

Sorry for the inconvenience
