Running Recuva v1.44.778 on Win XP Professional SP3
Launched Recuva (not using the wizard) and selected Scan
The product crashes every time, in the same place, at:
Stage 2 of 3: analyzing damage
current progress: 81%
CPU usage spikes during this stage, ranging between 80% and 100%
10-15 minutes later, a window launches with the following message:
"Recuva has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
I then ran the Recuva executable from the Run dialog using the Debug option.
"C:\Program Files\Recuva\Recuva.exe" /debug
