  1. Hello !

     

    I lose a great numbers of files (2000 or more) with a bug caused by another software. Approxmatively 90Go of data loss.

    I decided to test recuva in his final version 1.04.104.

     

    I selected the files i wanted and push the button ... and some minutes later recuva stop.

    i checked the result and only a small nmber of my files was recover.

     

    I decided to retry and monitor at the same time the task manager. i chose only 30 or 40 files to recover and this time it work !

    BUT the memory usage was climbing ! every files restored seem staying in main memory ! and the restoration process stop when memory is full ! (approx 2.5 G swap file)

     

    so i workarounded by restoring group of 30 or 40 files accordind to the 2.5Go limite ! exit the sofware, wait 30 second..(the memory usage return free) and re-lauch recuva .. etc etc.

     

    Recuva don't release the memory when a file is restored ! so you can't use if you want to recover files with a size > 2.5go !

     

    If a solution, like release the memory when a file is recover before process the next one, is found...it can help using recuva to recover a whole hard drive !
