Cannot recover a system file.
Files starting with a "$" such as "$MFT", "$MFTMirr", "$Volume", and "$Bitmap", are not user data files. They are used internally by Windows® and cannot be recovered.

CD-RW/DVD drives typically cannot be used for saving recovered files because they require a staging folder on drive C.
See "Destination Folder" in Chapter 6.
