Folders are files now

#1 Post by mattam343 »

Hello!

Seems like I made a little mistake trying to recover a disk.
I used testdisk, and the partition now is only 500 GB instead of 5000. Also my folders show up as 32 byte size files. It also is a FAT16 which it propably was not in it's original state.
Any tips on how to repair this? Or is all lost?
