Recovered background is corrupt why?
Ok so i used 3 programs to recover data which mysteriously disappeared from my NTFS notebook hard drive. When i use these programs i see the pictures/videos i want to recover. When i reocover them nought... 98% are corrupt. WHY? if the program can see the files why can't it just recover them? Would i disk defragment or cleanup fix the problem?
Answers:
the programs you installed probably overwrote the files you be trying to recover .... the recovery software can see "bits" of the files you lost but not all the bits so they're showing as corrupt
They are corrupt because they must've get over-written when you booted/rebooted your system between the time u lost it and recovered it.
Recovery programs can only recover programs that be lost but are still there surrounded by the memory.
If you defragment or clean up the disk, everything will be lost.
The solely option vanished for you is to recover the 2% good files.
Whenever facts is lost, the first n foremost thing to do is to run a recovery s/w. That will give support to u save more files.
