Hey there, I actually have a few questions/problems. But first, When you go to Optons/Actions tab at
the bottom in the "Recovery" section you have 2 settings, "Restore Folder Structure" pretty self explanatory, but in that same section we have "Secure overwriting", now to me since it is in the
Recovery sections, I ask the question, when recovering does it want to also delete? or is this ONLY
for AFTER you have scanned and do the right click delete stuff? I do not want to delete anything
Pretty much NEVER.
The reason I am going to use this is because I was using a portable from portableapps.com called
pchat and it was running for about 24 Hours, I get a message about it wasn't able to write or someting like this and it said "all data has been lost" on my usb flash drive. Which also is weird because I was only running that program and not portableapps menu if you are familiar with it, so I would have thought it might just lose pchat or any info pertaining to pchat not everything on my drive, but Whatever Lol. So Should I use something to image or clone like testdisk or photorec or whatever before I try to recover? I know the less writing the better and I don't know what writes and what don't.
As far as I am concerned just plugging it in writes or opening it just to view contents writes. I dunno.
I have yet to turn off computer or remove flash drive in hopes this helps give me a better chance at recovery.
