rock2448 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 (edited) So, I thought I could just make a windows recovery file and select my SSD external to be where it saves. Nope. It overwrote the entire SSD. I'm trying to recover all 800gb. Is this possible? I managed to recover some but not even a 1/4 of it.

Moderators Augeas Posted June 16, 2018 Moderators Share Posted June 16, 2018 You can run a Recuva normal or deep scan, and that's it. There are no ways to force Recuva to squeeze more files from the device. As that device is an SSD that's been overwritten, I think your chances of recovery are very slim.

Nope. It overwrote the entire SSD. If that program doesn't specifically state that it will overwrite your whole entire drive by first preferably prompting you or in any help documentation I would complain to the developer.

'Everything on the drive will be deleted. If you have any personal files on this drive, make sure you've backed up the drive.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
