Help with the MigRecover.exe program please
I would like to ask for some help with the MigRecover.exe program.
Following a failed attempt to upgrade my PC from XP to 7 (7 couldn't find my graphics card) I have reinstalled XP. I now have all of my personal data locked into a file called "Windows Easy Transfer - Items from old computer.MIG"
I have found a copy of MigRecover.exe on Pirate Bay and I am trying to extract my data using the instructions in the readme file. I did not use a password during the creation of the MIG file.
Here is what I have tried in the command prompt... First attempt
C:\MigRecover>migrecover.exe g:\richard pc\windows easy transfer - items from ol
d computer.mig c:\migrecover\recover
A utility to recover files from a Windows Easy Transfer or USMT archives.
Syntax:
MigRecover.exe <source MIG file> <destination path> [password]
Where:
<source MIG file> - the full path to the MIG file you need to recover files fr
om
<destination path> - the path where the tool should unpack the recovered files
[password] - the password used to encrypt the store (if any)
Second Attempt using <>
C:\MigRecover>migrecover.exe <g:\richard pc\windows easy transfer - items from o
ld computer.mig> <c:\migrecover\recover>
< was unexpected at this time.
Third attempt, I renamed the .MIG file to a shorter name "savedata.mig"
C:\MigRecover>MigRecover.exe G:\Richard PC\savedata.mig C:\migrecover\recover
Error while trying to open the source MIG file. Error: 0x00000002
Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong, and what I should be doing. I would really appreciate any help, this file has 5 years of photos including our wedding pictures and other valuable information.
Thank you in advance
