5.2 Manual Recovery

Set the switch to Manual in the Recovery mode window to select the manual

recovery mode.

Selecting manual recovery mode

The next Searching Method window enables you to select one of two deleted

partition searching methods: 1) Fast; 2) Complete.

What's the difference? Using the Fast search method, Acronis Recovery Expert

checks the beginning of each side of every cylinder of a hard disk. Using the

Complete method, Acronis Recovery Expert checks every hard disk sector.

The Fast method takes less time, while the Complete method is slower but more

thorough.

Note that the Fast method should find all deleted partitions in most cases!
