complete folder undelete,norton disk editor?

There is this system partition 1 with deleted mbr,both Fat tables
probably and possibly some files possibly fragmented .However in
norton disk editor/advanced recovery when you play with sectors per
fat and other numbers you get to see a root directory and folders in
it along with starting cluster and size.Is it possible to enter to see
inside those folders and what is the procedure to copy the individual
folder to say fat32 partition 2 which is ok
thanks in advance and if possible please copy the reply to my email as
well

Recovering a deleted FAT32 disk is not easy. You say you can see the
starting cluster number, but this is actually only the lowest 16 bits
of the cluster number. You need a program that will analyse the disk
and work out the upper 16 bits for each file entry.

Fragmented files on FAT32 have to be reconstructed. Verifing the
location of known good files helps as these areas can then be
excluded. The next stage is data carving the fragments together.
This nrequires good knowledge of the file structure for EACH type of
file.

What type of files are you looking for?

As a very strong word of advice, NEVER try and recover files onto your
damaged disk. The second partition might be OK, but to be safe, use
another drive.
