I used TestDisk to create an image of my damaged external hard drive. I had trouble finding software to recover my files directly from the .dd image. So I mounted it with OSFMount then used recovery software to get some data back, about 50% of 1TB. Some things are missing and some are corrupt, kind of a mess. I saw Ddrescue and was excited but I just can't wrap my head around it all. Has Ddrescue been incorporated in any software that I have a chance to be able to use? If not, could you please recommend a recovery software option for me that will use the image I've already made. I've been at this for about a month. I'm not completely incapable but I have no programming experience.
Thanks!!!
