This software retrieves data from damaged disk images.
Using the software is very easy, with various options available for searching specific types of files. For example, users can search for JPEG images by inputting "hachoir-subfile input --parser=jpeg," or search for specific categories of files such as images, videos, and SWF files with "hachoir-subfile input --category=image,video --parser=swf." The software can also search all subfiles and store them in designated folders with just one command, such as "hachoir-subfile input /tmp/subfiles/."
Other features include the ability to start the search process at specified offset in bytes using --offset and limit the search to a set amount of bytes using --size. The speed of the search is directly related to how many parsers are being used.
To illustrate the effectiveness of Hachoir Subfile, here are some examples of common searches. Users can find files in a hard drive by inputting "hachoir-subfile /dev/sda --size=34200100 --quiet," or search for a specific PowerPoint document with "hachoir-subfile chiens.PPS." In both cases, the software was able to recover multiple files with ease and speed.
Overall, Hachoir Subfile is a powerful tool for recovering files from damaged disk images. Its vast file format and extension support, user-friendly interface, and impressive search capabilities make it an excellent choice for any file recovery needs.
