Volume content recovery after using ‘fsck’ command

Hello Bredly,

The most effective solution is Stellar Phoenix Linux Data Recovery software.

This is an excellent utility which has the ability to recover lost, deleted, formatted or inaccessible data from any troubled Linux drive irrespective of the complexity of the data loss situations.

To get the benefit of this software you have to:

• Run first the fsck command.
• Then re-install the operating system.
• Then setup the Stellar Phoenix.

Then it is more likely that all the lost data can be found into one partition.

Thank you.
