CnW Recovery Main Screen
The main menu for CnW Recovery is displayed once the Wizard has been exited. There are several simple menu functions as displayed below. This screen is the start of all manual operations, generally for disks that can not be recovered by the Wizard
Wizard
Recover
In this mode, the media is read and a new option screen is displayed depending on teh type of media. There is a separate screen for CDs / DVDS FAT, NTFS, MAC, Unix media and MTF files
Partitions
The partitions function is most commonly used when the boot sector of the disk has failed, or been corrupted
Image Raw
The Im’g icon is for imaging. This is a mode where the media is read, sector by sector and either produces a complete disk image file, or the data can be split into different files depending on file starts. It is very useful for instance for extracting all JPEGs from a camera memory chip.

Configure
