Bug ID: 37531 Summary: HxD and HexEdit fail to access disks Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: tcll5850@gmail.com Distribution: ---
what I'm trying to do is dump my 500GB HDD onto my 1TB HDD by opening the 500GB in either HxD or HexEdit and saving it as a file on the 1TB.
HxD only sees my C drive and 5 logical disks (all reporting "Bad Device Type")
HexEdit sees my 500GB E drive, but needs administrative privileges to open it.
first place I looked up on google told me to report a bug... if you need downloads: HxD: http://mh-nexus.de/en/downloads.php?product=HxD HexEdit: http://www.4shared.com/file/VRaD3TtAce/HexEditPro4_0.html? (sorry for 4Shared, http://www.hexeditpro.com no longer exists)
why do I want/need this type of access? My 500GB was corrupted by ChkDsk (every file is 0KB in size) (that's ~300GB of IMPORTANT data not being looked at) I havn't touched it, so I know the data is still there, however, the drive is/was compressed.
I want a raw image so I can format the drive and not have to worry about loss of data. (as I can recover from the image)
