I can see drive,folders and files, i can even copy some of them through windows. But at some point i will get a windows write failure error. I am trying to use TestDisk to recover my files from this drive so it can be reformatted or thrown in the trash. It keeps saying it cant find a partition and i cant list any files to recover.
I can see my drive it just will not find a partition so i can list my files to recover...
Windows can see the drive.. Write failure

If no partition is listed in the Advanced menu, use Analyse, Quick Search and Deeper Search if you still have nothing.
