cannot recover partition under Windows (but recovered under Linux) #85

Closed ibonobo closed 4 years ago

ibonobo commented 4 years ago

I have a Seagate removable 4TB drive, and the connection weakened, resulting in some corruption which was inadequately fixed. Long story short, I was able to use TestDisk under Linux and restore it, after having failed to do so under Windows (I think I chose the incorrect, older type of partition). It is still impossible to recover the partition and use the drive under Windows. Here is the error log under Windows: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tGefpy679_rycbPG9-X9kf11K9R-q3J-30THoLC2j9A/edit?usp=sharing

Please help. Thank you.

The partition table lists your 4 TB partition. It seems OK. Please read https://www.cgsecurity.org/testdisk.pdf the chapter about Repairing Filesystem. If you need help, please go to https://forum.cgsecurity.org instead of opening a bug report.
