helpmrwizard Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Lost the MFT on my internal aux. storage drive and the only way I can see the files now is by using Recuva. Drive had been running "maxed out" with zero (0) space available. Now it has a MFT problem and refuses to run chkdsk due to lack of space available. sigh I need to free up some space on this drive so that hopefully chkdsk can can put the MFT back in order. Thanks much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Augeas Posted February 15, 2019 Moderators Share Posted February 15, 2019 No. Recuva can search for and display undeleted files, but it won't delete them, for fairly obvious safety reasons. Can't you open Explorer and delete something? If Explorer is a no-goer then you might be able to use CCleaner to release some space. You can run the portable version from a flash drive without having to install it. If it runs then try a simple task to empty the recycler, run a normal clean, clean cookies, clear old restore points. This might give you some breathing space. Or expand the partition if you have the space available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
