I was just wondering if it will be worth me buying ZAR v8 in the hope of recovering data from the following scenario:
I have 120gig HD, which had 3 partions, 1:WinXP64 2:Data 3:Applications
I had created a ghost of the WinXP back in 2006.
My WinXP64 was beggining to run very slow recently as it does after afew years, so I thought why not restore it from the ghost I made earlier.
On doing the above I made a mistake, I for got that when I made the original ghost, I did not have the 3 partitons, so I ended up writing a single WinXP64 partition which takes up the whole 120gig HD.
Now I thought all was lost (how can my data still be recoverable I thought?)
but on running the trial version of ZAR, it seems like it is able to see atleast some of the data that I seem to have lost, it can reconise the actual files and folders aswell.
but for some reason I am unable to recover the 4 folders that the trial should allow me to recover? I can not put ticks in the side of the files even the the once with green icons.
I am still tempted to buy the full product, could you give some assurance that I will be able to copy atleast some of the data that it says it can see in the scan?
Please Help!
