SYNOPSIS

       photorec [/log] [/debug] [/d recup_dir] [device|image.dd|image.e01]

DESCRIPTION

          PhotoRec  is  file  data  recovery software designed to recover lost
       files including video, documents and archives from Hard Disks and CDRom
       and lost pictures (Photo Recovery) from digital camera memory. PhotoRec
       ignores the filesystem and goes after the  underlying  data,  so  it’ll
       work  even if your media’s filesystem is severely damaged or formatted.
       PhotoRec is safe to use, it will never attempt to write to the drive or
       memory support you are about to recover lost data from.

OPTIONS

       /log   create a photorec.log file

       /debug add debug information
