Resume photorec When bruteforce search is interrupted

#1 Post by srix »

Hi ,

Am using photorec 6.14. I can resume a photorec search using the photorec.ses file , when the regular search is interrupted. However when the bruteforce search is interrupted, it doesn't resume . Instead it always starts the bruteforce search from the beginning. How do i resume the bruteforce search?

PhotoRec can resume a recovery but not in the brute-force step. The code for this functionality need to be written.
