A hard drive can be divided into several partitions to easily manage your data. Furthermore, each hard disk partition can be used for various purposes like installing a different operating system, storing backup and more. However, a partition in the hard drive can be corrupted due to operating system malfunctioning, re-sizing the partition, malicious software like virus and more. In such situations, the data saved in that particular corrupted partition becomes inaccessible. To access the lost partition data, you need to restore it from the latest backup. But, if you have not maintained any backup or the backup has been corrupted, then you need to use advanced Partition Recovery Software.
Consider a practical scenario, where you want to re-size your hard drive partition. While the re-sizing process was in progress, there is power outage and the computer system shuts down. When you restart your system, you encounter the below error message:
“A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to our computer”
After the above error message appears, the system becomes unbootable and all the hard drive partitions become inaccessible.
Cause:
The main cause of the above error message is that the partitions have been damaged due to an interruption while re-sizing the partition.
Resolution:
To resolve the above error message and access the hard drive partitions, you need to follow any of these steps:
•Boot the computer with “last known good configuration” in debug mode.
•You should disable or uninstall any anti-virus or backup utilities. Next, boot from the install CD then use CHKDSK command to check and repair the hard drive corruption.
But, if both the above measures fail to resolve the above issue, then you need recreate all the hard drive partitions by reformatting the system. Reformatting will erase all the formally saved data in the hard drive partitions. In such circumstances, you can recover the lost data by using advanced partition recovery application. Such partition recovery applications recover and restore complete data by incorporating advanced and effective scanning algorithms. These applications are easy-to-understand and implement because of their interactive and graphical user interface.
