QPhotorec Memory Issue?

#1 Post by 201pilot »

Modified Post:

I had to give up trying to restore my partition damaged 6 TB HD as both the MFT and backup are missing. So, I've tried to use QPhotoRec. Things started fine! The files recovered are complete. After QPhotoRec created 7 folders of backups (about 7%) on another 6 TB HD my Win7 Pro computer ran totally out of RAM and I had to reboot. I started up QPhotoRec and saved to the same folder previously used. The program appeared to start up from where it left off, however the files saved to folder #8 are duplicates of material already saved from the first run.

Is there any way to 1. start from where I left off and 2. Reduce memory usage or clear memory usage, without rebooting and thus having QPhotoRec lose its place?

This is ver 7.1.0.0


Thanks!
