Hey guys, So I backed up my recovery partition to a USB thumb drive 32gb and I want to move it to a smaller USB 16gb drive. Is there any way to move it from one USB to another? If so, how? Also, just curious. Would I be able to move the recovery partition to my 1TB usb WD drive (where all my...

Yeah when I view that with the browser it shows next to nothing in all my major folders... I'm just gonna copy all these files recuva found to an external (I need to buy a 2tb External first)

Here are some screens of my drives available and what I see in Recuva... In recuva I see a bunch of random package files among other random .dll and stuff... not really any files I recognize... Edit: The scan I did in Recuva was the basic scan, I just selected the options for a deep scan and...

Okay well I will definitely try recuva when I get home and post a screenshot if it doesnt work... I hope to god it does, I never made a backup of my entire drive(stupid me I know) but never had any problems ever on win7. Thank you everyone for your help thus far. When I have the time I will...

Yes I did add recuva. I will try that when I get home late this evening. If that cannot find my files am I pretty much screwed?

Yeah that's where I'm stuck. When I went to my local drive, users and default I see no data in any main folders. (Music,pictures,documents,videos)

Yes I can see my drives. It lists a recovery drive, my local drive and the USB with SIW2 program on it. (I'm at work that's all I can remember it lists for drives) So what exactly do I need to do at this point to maybe recover the data from my drives?

I can load up to the usb drive fine and get to the menu, when I browse my drives I don't see any of my data under my localdisk-users-pictures/videos/documents etc... the explorer in the menu only shows 1.66tb free (91%) on my local disk E:..so are my files gone I would say at this point? I had...

That's okay I figured out what you Meant, I used rufus to make the bootable usb from the iso in winre64... Now do I just stick the USB in my desktop and edit the bios to boot from the USB? I'm not sure if my bios can even boot from USB to be honest... :/ edit: just kidding I figured out how to...

I copied the explorerframe.dll and it was already there. I have hidden files and folders showing and the file does not show, but if I try to copy it again from install.wim it says it's already there.... Now I continue your steps on the other thread and after I do that, what exactly do I need to...

My desktop was upgraded to win8.1 from windows 8 but was previously windows 7. So I used 7-zip to get to the install.wim from the windows 8.1 dvd and I copied the winre.wim to the folder c:\winre64 and it disappears immediately after it's copied.... I am using a laptop with Win 7 to do this...

My main problem is basically this: stuck in automatic repair loop, none of the options or previous methods have worked and I cannot format bc I need info off the HDDs. Now I can either do that by your method apparently, or I would be fine with somehow connecting my two HDDs in RAID0 to another...

I have a pc with win 7 and a windows 8.1 installation dvd inserted. I saw this by googling...link I'm not sure how to get the winre.wim file... and was hoping the link I found would allow me to do that from the win8 installation media

I was able to pull it up so I can view drives. Now in part 2 I am stuck at this I do not see winre.wim in that folder? I only see BIN folder and winre64-runmeasadmin

Okay thank you. I am at work and will try this when I get home in about 3 hours... I think I understand the process now!
