Get message "bad sector count - no partition is bootable".... so I do Quick search
I select the HPFS - NTFS partition
Hit P to list files
I select particular folders to copy
Some folders copy OK. Other folders send the copy function into what seems to be an infinite loop. My sense is that this seems to be related to the folders having hidden directories with things like .git directories or .cache directories.
Not really sure how I can create a reproducible example without posting you the drive but if you've got suggestions let me know!
I'm trying to recover files off a hard disc that was setup as RAID (described here: https://superuser.com/questions/1652186/recovering-a-newly-created-raid1-that-has-no-superblock-lost-after-reboot).
I'm using testdisk to access it:
Index
partitionAnalyze
Quick search
HPFS - NTFS

Is there any way to mitigate this?
