| Tip | Why it Helps | |-----|--------------| | | Imaging a failing drive prevents further damage and allows you to retry recoveries without risking the original media. | | Use the CLI for large batch jobs | afrcli.exe -scan D: -deep -out C:\Recovery\Image.img can be scripted, scheduled, and run unattended. | | Limit memory usage | In deep‑scan mode, AFR can allocate a lot of RAM. Use the -maxmem switch (e.g., -maxmem 4096 ) on machines with limited resources. | | Disable Windows indexing on the target drive | Indexing services may write to the disk during recovery, potentially overwriting data. | | Run a surface test first | Use a tool like HD Tune to map out bad sectors; you can then tell AFR to skip those sectors, speeding up the scan. | | Update the software | Even within the same major version, patches improve signature databases and stability. Check the vendor’s site for the latest 2.2.x updates. |
