Quick and dirty with DMDE

I know this video sucks, but I hope it helps you get started with,

DMDE is a powerful tool for data searching, editing, and recovery on disks. It may recover directory structure and files in some complicated cases through the use of special algorithms when other software can't help.

Great primer! Thank you. I have a degraded raid 5 array, in which 3 of 4 disks are still intact. After a few false starts with other software, I'm hoping to try DMDE for this task soon. Do you think this would be a useful tool in my case? Does the free version do any recovery or would I need to consider the paid version?

[@ryd3v]

Thank you. Yes I think it would be a great tool, you may possibly need a paid version in your case depending on how many files you wish to recover

[@blinddog1212]

@@ryd3v Thanks for the feedback! Looks like there's a version on the Hiren boot USB, so will give that a spin soon. Appreciate the primer!

@@blinddog1212 You're very welcome

so at 11:10 when you're recovering the virtual machine files, are those deleted and you're actually recovering them? or are they normal files that you would be able to see when connecting the drive to the computer?
edit: when you perform a full scan on the drive, that means you'll be able to see and recover the deleted images right?

[@ryd3v]

Those are files to be recovered that were discovered in the initial scan of the drive or image.
Yes when you do a full scan you will be able to then recover

Hi can DMDE recover folders with files inside , still with their original file names

[@ryd3v]

yes

[@Magdalena-Mabi]

@@ryd3v and within original folders? I just recovered some of my data, but instead of having like 5 main folders, it gave me literally thousands of folders - it looks like each folder is created for one file. :(

[@ryd3v]

@@Magdalena-Mabi I’m not sure of your process so I don’t know exactly what happened, but it’s possible a large amount of fragments can be created

Can DMDE be used to recover files for Adobe?

[@ryd3v]

can be used to recover any file

[@k-ih5jy]

it won’t let me on the dmde because it says i need administrator privileges but i only have one account on my mac what does this mean?

[@k-ih5jy]

i tried to put notadmin=1 in dmde.ini but it says application not available

[@JulianLopez-kx1zo]

type the password to that one account when you login

[@ryd3v]

I'm not sure, you should know the password for your mac
