Hi, I have a corrupt SD card. I am using BC3. I have also had this same problem with a corrupt drive in the past. Some of it is corrupt and some is not. I am trying to save any files that are not corrupt. The way I attempt to do this is by using folder compare and then copying files over from the corrupt source to a good disk in BC3. generally any good files copy immediately but it seem when it runs into a corrupt file it hangs. and very often I have to reboot and start from where I left off but skip the file that made beyond compare hang. somehow it seems to me that there might be a setting such as a timeout I could set that would allow the copy process to continue and essentially skip the corrupt files after say 1 minute of no response instead of hanging. or maybe part of the corrupt files end up on the target, but they don't compare so you know they were bad. that is, typically the directories on the corrupt devices are good and show, say 1000 files, but some are corrupt when you try to copy and others are not. Well now I have thousands of such files and copying until I find a corrupt one and then rebooting etc etc is just impractical as far as time goes. it will take me days and days to do this because I have thousands of files. it seems there must be a better way. maybe even other recovery software but the software I have found so far seems to just want to recover deleted files. i'm not interested in that. I just want to recover what I can and then reformat the corrupted device or trash it. but the constant hanging is killing me. Any suggestions on how to do this in a reasonable-time method? Or even other software designed to do what I am trying to do?
Thanks
Thanks
