- Recovers a file or complete disk that contains bad sectors
- See also <CHKDSK>
-
- COMMAND TYPE: External VERSION: 2.0 and up
-
- USE: RECOVER [d:][path]filename
- or RECOVER d:
-
- d: path filename specifies the drive, path, and filename of the file
- or files that you wish to recover.
-
- If a filename is specified, only that file will be recovered. If only
- a drive is specified, all files on that disc will be recovered.
- Individually recovered files will simply be written over the old file
- (without the defective sectors).
- NOTE: When you recover an entire disk, all files will be renamed and
- the files which have been recovered will be named in the following
- manner.
- FILEnnnn.REC
- where nnnn is a sequential number starting at 001. These files will be
- placed in the root directory. Since this directory can only hold a
- limited number of files, files may be lost when using this command.
- It is safer to recover the files individually.
