    Choose specific location and browse to your "D" drive and select it.

    Leave this blank for the time being. We'll see what it finds.

    Let it run. Good recoverable files will show with a green dot, "maybe" files in yellow, "Unrecoverable" in red.

    Post back some examples of what you get before you choose to recover them.

    I'll be checking the thread. Be thinking about a place to recover them TO. Safer to recover them to another drive if you have one and the space, otherwise you run the risk of overwriting some recoverable files with the ones you're recovering, if that makes any sense.

    It shows all the data but this is not the one I want. It's of the old C drive data which was thrown in D drive while installing the Windows.
