I used Partition Expert 8.0 to transfer free space from d:\ to c:\

1- I was using the automatic wizard for this.

2- I committed the changes and partition expert was running - when suddenly in the middle it shutdown my laptop.

3- I restarted the laptop and ran the partition expert wizard again. After committing again, it came with estimated time of 1 day. So, I cancelled the operation.

4- I restarted the machine again after that and windows started running chkdisk on d:\ and did a lot of restoration stuff.


After it finished the chkdisk and booted - I found that some of my files on d:\ have gone corrupt.

I have attached one sample file - which went corrupt. Is there any way I can get the files in the original state?

I dont have system restore monitoring the d:\ - so that option is not available and I dont have any backups for some of these files - so I am stuck.


Please help!

thanks
