If a partition is corrupted in Windows, possible (but not all) symptoms are:

• Invalid media type reading drive.
  Abort, Retry, Fail?
• File system is displayed as "RAW".
• Windows may ask if you want to format the drive, such as warning "disk not formatted. do you want to format now?". Such as the follow picture.
• File names contain "weird" characters.
• "Sector not found" messages.

To recover the files from RAW Drive, please follow this procedure:

5. Select the files or directory that you want to recover and press the "Next" button.

6. Select a directory and press the "Next" button to save the files.
