rosawoodsii Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 How do I select the drive to recover my files to? My main drive doesn't have enough room, so I have to save the recovered drives from my USB to another USB drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators nukecad Posted February 25, 2023 Moderators Share Posted February 25, 2023 Do you have the target drive connected? Both the drive to be recovered from and the target drive to recover to need to be connected. Note that if there are a lot of deleted and overwritten files on a drive then Recuva may/will think it needs the space to restore them all (even though it can't because they are overwritten) - which may be more that the 'recover-from' drive could actually hold. Has your drive crashed so you need to recover undeleted files? Or are you trying to recover accidentally deleted files? *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?

rosawoodsii Posted February 25, 2023 Author Share Posted February 25, 2023 Ah! I didn't see an option for a target drive, so I thought I was missing something. I just clicked on 'Recover" and found the prompt for a target drive. I hadn't wanted to click on "Recover" until I had assigned the drive, which is completely clean. And yes, I accidentally deleted the files on the first drive. Thanks for the lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
