DiskPatch Description

DiskPatch is a DOS application that can help you find a solution to various problems that might affect the functioning of your hard disk. It addresses issues related to the MBR sector, partitions or the boot sector, while also allowing surface testing and disk wiping operations. Its ultimate goal is to provide you with a way to recover data you lost due to the corruption of disk structures. The installation package includes two other setup files that enable you to create a bootable floppy or USB disk that can be used for running DiskPatch, all with the help of comprehensive wizards, ready to guide you throughout the entire operation. The reason for this is that a damaged hard disk might result in the failure of the operating system starting procedure, so it would be unwise to have the recovery tool running from Windows. When the computer starts, just set it to boot from the self-starting device, which enables you to view DiskPatch's interface. The application is configured to scan the selected disk and automatically solve common problems, requiring minimum feedback from the user. It can repair bad sectors, identify and log reading and writing errors. Please note that the application can only process the first four hard disks that are connected to the system. DiskPatch can display a list of the available partitions and is capable of detecting whether the Master Boot Record sector is invalid and thereby, inaccessible. It features options for re-building the partition tables and repairing the boot sectors. Furthermore, it can generate a report containing all the S.M.A.R.T. attributes, enabling you to get an overview of the hard drive's functioning parameters and assess its reliability. Also, DiskPatch can be used for creating backups of the disk structures, in order to avoid data loss in the future. DiskPatch is dedicated to experts, enabling them to recover data on the hard drive and make the computer run smoothly again. While it only runs in DOS, it is a useful hard disk maintenance and diagnostics tool. Reviewed by Mihaela Citea, last updated on February 12th, 2014
