Have you tried Norton NDD? It fixes lots of stuff CHKDSK and ScanDisk
can't.
No. I don't have anything Norton. For some reason, from many years
ago, I
got a bad taste in my mouth from Norton. Don't remember the details.

Probably that lousy anti-virus software or something that happened
when Symantec took over. When it was Peter Norton, they did some great
things with disk recovery software. I have taken "broken" drives out
of the trash and fixed them with NDD.

They had an excellent backup software product, too. It was an un-raped
version of the piece 'o **** that came with Windows back in the day.
It was so good, they discontinued it.



Just another example of what happens when a BIG corporation takes over
another company. Almost invariably, the smaller company's product line
is examined by the bigger company's MBAs and then turned into crap.


And, just like hiring union labor. Productivity drops and costs
increase. Why can't I plug this into the outlet? Because you are not a
union electrician. But, if I was at home I could plug it in? Your house
is not a union shop.
