1.4. Partition Damage
In the case of partition
damage, the job for the file recovery software is to analyze the surface of
the HDD and retrieve clues around structure of the logical data in order to
reconstruct the partition or drive parameters (such as the first sector number, cluster size,
file system type, etc.). As this process makes logical connections based on probability, it
creates an entity called a virtual drive. Without any kind of drive structure, no data can be
retrieved. The virtual drive partition will give the user some data to work with. This guide
outlines the steps to repair a partition and recover data in the following sections:
This User Guide assumes that you have some basic knowledge of hard disk drive
and file
system organization to be able to understand the recovery terminology and
examples.
Active@ UNERASER is a compact and powerful DOS utility that can recover deleted
files and folders on FAT12, FAT16, FAT32 and NTFS systems. It can even restore
files
from deleted partitions.
With this data recovery software NTFS drives can be recognized and deleted items
can be
recovered from Microsoft DOS. It is not necessary to install the utility on your
system's
hard drive, as it fits on a floppy disk, removing the possibility of overwriting
data which
you want to recover.
