Dark light Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 Hi Im using xp. I had some files in a partition. the file system is Fat32. after a scandisk session the windows changed some folders of that partition into a windows system like file showing 32KB size. While the folders previously contained huge amount of data.Now the folder doesn't open as windows doesn't recognize it. I've tried to open the foldes with windows explorer but no success. Also the partition size shows that files are there but they can't be accessed as the folder have become something else. I used easy recovery. After it scanned the partition it found the files as lost .chk files. I retrieved one file and it was a chk file . I changed the file format to mpg as this file was an mpg initially and the file played . Since i've alot of files so ican't retrieve each file like that as it won't find all the files. How can i get that folder icon back and access the files and folders contained in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
