    Windows File Recovery (winfr) on Bit Locker and/or compressed volume

    Splitting off a Windows question from the OneDrive question at:

    Redirecting

    When using the WinFR (Windows File Recovery) command line utility, I get 63,000 files recovered but only the TXT files can be opened by the app corresponding to the file extension recovered. Is this file recovery utility aware of compression and encryption?

    The drive that was the Source of the recovery was an unlocked, BitLocker encrypted volume. I don't think Compress Files to Save Space was ever selected, but I'm not sure. I guess I'm concerned that if winfr is a very low level recovery utility, it might recover the chains of the files but not take care of the step to decrypt or decompress.

    Further, I've already tried winfr and Recuva. Are there any other file recovery utilities known to recover deleted files on NTFS and BIt Locker volumes?

    Recover files from Flash drive

    Does not work on a windows pc which is what the OP probably intended

    windows by default does not have HFS and HFS+ based hard drives.
    Able to perform retrieval on both HFS and HFS+ based hard drives. and so will not work with windows

    thanks for the effort
