TestDisk FS recovery

#1 Post by abhishekrayasam »

Hello,

I am trying to restore the partition table on my Windows machine, but TestDisk shows no partitions when I choose Intel and analyze. I also tried unpartitioned media and other options, but after analysis, no partitions are shown. When selecting Intel, I see the following (screenshot attached).

Is there any way I can restore? The HDD is a 250GB SSD, but AFAIK the partition table seems to be showing invalid geometry. :?

Can you run "sudo hexdump -C /dev/sda | head -40" and provide a screenshot ?
