chkdsk c: /f /r /x damaged files, experts pls help!
I had BSOD because of Avast, I tried rebuilding BCD, sfc scan etc but nothing worked.
So I ran chkdsk c: /f /r /x it took an hour after which i could log into windows but only to see my desktop text files are corrupted, only few of them are fine but rest not either readable or blank..same with some photos.
How can i get back my text files atleast? That 1TB HDD was perfectly fine as i tested it with HD tune and others with SMART test being perfectly good. Loss is only in C partition rest 3 are good. please help which steps i can try... run chkdsk again? i dont want to repair windows just need those files back.
