IMO its better than EaseUS, paragon and MiniTool. You can try the free version first to see if it can find all your data or not, then if it can, you can go ahead and buy the pro version to actually recover the data. Regarding data recovery, PartitionGuru (former DiskGenius) is highly reputable in China and my personal experience with it is also very good. I once had a corrupted partition table (when restoring an disk image made by Disk Image and the restore failed on start, rendering a un-recognized raw disk), all the other tools I tried failed to recovery all the partitions, while only Terabyte BIBM successfully recovered all partitions correctly within seconds. IMO Terabyte Bootit Bare Metal (BIBM) is much better than Paragon, MiniTool and AOMEI partition assistant in partition recovery. Glad to know you've already done the disk imaging. The files I am chasing are family photos and videos. (FYI - I haven't been working from the original disk, but made a "sector-based clone", so I can still go back to the original disk state right after the operation cancellation if needed).Īgain, all help is greatly appreciated. Or is there something else I have missed, or should try?
And this was not yet created as a new partition (or at least none that Paragon's rescue/restore disk could find).ĭoes anyone know how PM works when moving a partition, and if the above makes sense? And if so, does anyone know how to find these moved files? BUT the files that have already been moved by PM are stored in some other fashion. The files that have not yet been moved, they still have the correct pointers and working using the "old" recreated partition.
The "Move" operation in Paragon Partition Manager had progressed for quite some time. (EDIT: Some files and folders seem also to be deleted from the partition) Many files have the pointers, but they aren't located there anymore. I deleted the partition and found the old partition again.īUT, unfortunately the old partition is corrupt/partial.
