My registry was corrupted and I did a Win Vista repair, when i logged back in my entire user folder was gone. Desktop, Favorite, Documents, Pics, Music, teh whole deal. It was replaced with a user file called TEMP. I'm hoping recuva can get some of my data back.
I installed it on a thumbdrive and started it a few hours ago. I selected hidden files, non-deleted files, deep scan, just about everything. I also selected all file types and treeview.
It ran ok until 8%. Now it's been at 8% and 133209 files found for about 3 hours now. No move in Percentage or Number of files. Is that normal behavior? It's a thinkpad laptop with a 160GB (142 in this partition) drive.
I don't mind leaving it run all night, i just want to make sure i'm not wasting time if it's really hung up. Thanks
