  1. "The System cannont find the file specified."

     

    I believe because before this harddrive went kaputz I was on XP and the images were hidden.

     

    I am now on Windows 7 and the reason I couldnt recover them before the harddrive crashed in the first place was becuase I didn't have ownership.

    Hidden files on XP cannot be found by recuva?? They show up as green files, is there a way to recover them?

  2. Thanks Richard,

     

    For what its worth I have let it run for a few hours now and it is up to 15%, but I think I am going to go ahead and use the low level repair tool you mentioned to see if that works. If not I will let recuva run until it gets a fatal error or something. :)

     

    Thanks for the reply

  3. I am running in advanced with search for non-deleted checked.

     

    The harddrive is an external enclosure made from my old tower's main drive that gave me a S.M.A.R.T. warning when booting up and I am now just getting around to trying to recover it.

     

    But like I said:

     

    1. It sees the harddrive, although says "parameters not found" or similar error when I try to browse in it, just like explorer does(btw I am using 7 if that makes a difference)

    2. It starts off pretty quick gets up to 13%

    3. Says like 30 seconds left then just stops there and the estimated time left just continuously rises.

     

    No matter what I am searching for, the folder name, or just pictures in general it gets stuck at 13%. Am I totally helpless in getting these photos off the drive?

     

    If reuva can't save it from a damaged drive will any of the pay for programs do a better job?

     

    Thanks for your time,

    Corey
