  1. Everything seems fine after the recovery, the files are recovered. The only problem is that MOST, if not all, of the files have duplicates, triplicates, quadruplicates and so on. It’s gonna take me a while. :/ Thank you for your interest! I hope I wouldn’t have to recover everything back to the same hard drive but I have no other choice, sadly. Once I’m done with this story I’ll make sure to tell my friend to always have his data backed up somewhere else.
  2. Oh, I see. Though, the thing is that my computer’s been on for a couple of days and I’m worried that something might happen to it due to overheating or something. “...Recovering to the same drive will also change the recoverability of your​ data. Don't do that Don't recover all 700k of the files; take time and find the ones you want.” I unchecked most of the files and chose the ones that I really wanted but they’re still a lot of them. I recovered (Still recovering, 8 hours remaining) HALF of the files to the same drive - Does that mean that the other half will be ‘corrupted’?
  3. A friend asked me to install Windows 7 on his external hard drive, without deleting his 600GB worth of content (Hard drive has 1TR space). I had to split his drive in half (One Partition = 800+GB — Second Partition = 90+GB). I was gonna install Windows 7 on the second one BUT the thing is that I accidentally formatted BOTH partitions and all of his content is now gone. I downloaded RECUVA since everybody said it is the best way to recover your lost data and I started scanning, which, honestly, took several hours. Now that the scanning is done (708.000+ files found), I’m wondering IF I can turn off my computer and continue with the recovery the next day. Will the scanning results still be there if I turn it off? If I recover half of the files today and spend plenty and plenty of time, can I rest my computer system and continue with the rest of the files the upcoming day? (Note: I plan to recover everything back to the SAME formatted hard drive - I don’t wan’t my friend to realise and get upset, cause I’m pretty sure he will be.) Thank you so much for reading!
