Resume photorec session

#1 Post by Bigcat21 »

Hi I tried to resume a photorec session, but it resumes from the same hd where the .ses is not from the hd where to recover the files

The set up is g: the external hd that shows raw and that I am trying to recover the most of the files, an element 4 gb. Then the h: is the other external hd from which I started the first session, and where the files are going after recovery

If I go to h: and the directory where the .ses is, photorec resume the session but checking h: and not g: as when the first session was first launched

Any help will be highly appreciated

Thanks
Davide

Edit the photores.ses file with notepad++ or another text editor and check the source device listed at the beginning.
