  1. The ntfs partition on my USB disk is a bit corrupted. A huge backup tar file is still on the disk, but is somehow split into two parts. Recuva lists one of them with the correct name "usr.tar" and a correct size of 21GB, but only recovers half of that. The other file is listed without a filename and with the remaining size that was not recovered. So when I tried to restore the second file, Recuva failed with the error "Invalid access". It worked with the first part and there's still plenty of space left on that other drive. So I assume this is probably related to the empty filename, but I'm not sure of course Anyway, it would be nice to have some option "Recover as ... " or something, so I can rename it at least. I don't really expect Recuva to recover the full file at once because the ntfs-undelete tool on Linux lists two files as well (both without name) and refuses to recover them as well saying it is in use by the MFT. But whatever happens, Recuva recovered half the tar file already, that's 10GB of files saved, thanks for that! Of course, it would be really great if I could restore the other part too
