GRRR!!! HELP!!!! Recuva has scanned & found loads of files on external HD. Some dating back years which I really do not need. In the comments section it says Overwritten by............ If when I go to recover, will I get back the 'Overwritten by..........' files? I have tried 'recover' to another big HD but it goes to 15% & just stops; no nothing coming from the original HD at all.
