Paranoid and files other than JPEG

#1 Post by toliveira »

Hi,

Could you please tell me whether the Paranoid option impacts just the recovery of JPEG or other files as well?

Kind regards,
Thomas

Hi,

1cd, 7z, ab, abr, ace, aif, als, amr, arj, asf, asm, au, axp, axx, bac, bin, bkf, bld, bmp, bpg, cab, caf, che, chm, crw, cwk, d2s, dad, dat, dex, dir, djv, doc, dpx, drw, dst, dv, dxf, e01, ecryptfs, emf, evt, exe, ext, ext2, fat, fcs, fds, fh5, fit, fits, flp, flv, fp7, frm, fs, gct, gi, gif, gp2, gp5, gpg, gsm, hdf, hdr, hr9, icc, icns, ico, ifo, indd, iso, itu, jpg, jsonlz4, key, lnk, lso, lxo, m2ts, mb, mfa, mfg, mft, mid, mig, mkv, mlv, mobi, mov, mp3, mpg, mrw, mus, mxf, myo, nes, njx, nk2, oci, ogg, one, orf, par2, pct, pdf, pf, pfx, plr, png, prt, ps, psb, psd, psf, psp, pst, pzf, qbb, r3d, ra, raf, rar, riff, rw2, rx2, sp3, spe, spf, sql, stl, studio, swf, tib, tiff, tiff, tiff, tiff, tivo, tph, ttf, txt, vault, vdi, veg, vfb, vmg, wdp, wee, wim, win, wmf, woff, wpd, wtv, wv, x4a, xfs, xm, xpt, xsv, xz, zip
