Why doesn't target destination in Testdisk have a directory tree?

I was using Testdisk in K oppix but I'm sure this applies to Ubuntu.



I can find files on the bad partition using the directory tree. I hit c to copy the file and then Testdisk wants the destination folder.



Every example video or instruction page says I should be seeing a direcotry tree on my destination drive. I don't but the destination drive shows its mounted.

  • This is askUbuntu, have you tried it on Ubuntu? Is it at least the same version of testdisk that Ubuntu has? And when you "hit c to copy the file and then Testdisk wants the destination folder" it sounds like the directory tree you're looking for... what do you think you're missing? (PS you can copy & paste testdisk's output, it's just text, and edit it into your question as code)

  • Thank you but according to video instructions I've seen on Youtube for Testdisk, the destination folder shows root level and you can go down the directory tree to choose a folder.
