saywot Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I have a 2TB disk with a single ext3 partition attached to a Windows PC via USB. The host can see the /home directory and all sub-directories. The drive lost all content in the 'Videos' directory - I don't know how or why but all other content is visible and available. Recuva 1.53 is installed on the Windows 7 host, it installed without issue, I run the application as admin. The scan starts but immediately halts with F::Incorrect Function It progressed no further than 0%. How can I scan this Linux drive ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This release sees a number of improvements to our file system support, including the addition of Ext2 and Ext3 support and improvements to the deep scan algorithm for FAT32 volumes."

saywot Posted December 8, 2017 Author Share Posted December 8, 2017 I'm going to guess that this is as far as this post will get. The storage drive has only one partition, and it's formatted to Ext3 - the permissions seem OK Still "Unable to scan drive" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
