![]() To be clear, someone deleted or formatted the disk and then put a resume file on it. ![]() There is no data currently on the Floppy that she wants to save so making an image of the data would do no good. Out of ideas at this point so I am hoping the community can help me get a scan ran on this old drive (Windows 10 OS environment) to hopefully save those memories for her.Ĭorrect, the information is indeed stored on a 3.5" floppy and I am using the Chuanganzhuo 3.5" USB Floppy Disk Reader to read said floppy and doing so from a desktop and not through any other interface (the Chuanganzhuo reader is connected to a USB port directly on the mobo in the back and I have alternated ports there to rule out USB port issues). Closest I got was with RecoverIt where it can see the drive but will say the drive has been disconnected even though Windows Explorer can actively read from it. I tried different USB ports, disable then re-enable the driver with a fresh restart, different undelete applications, and so on all to no avail. I was able to see it is using a generic Windows Driver (via Properties while in Explorer):Īnd the device in question is a simple 3.5" external drive made by the company Chuanganzhuo (no further model numbers or identifying information). Windows Explorer can see the drive and I can read the contents but Disk Management does not see it nor can I see anything under Device Manager. I immediately thought that all is not lost, maybe there is a chance to undelete any files but I am running into issues, as to be expected in this situation. ![]() My wife found an old 3.5" floppy that had some great old memories on them but someone used the disk and either erased or formatted the thing leaving an old resume. Turning to the forums here to help me with an issue I am having with a 3.5" external USB drive.
