Saving and Restoring a File Scavenger® Session

What is a session file?

Your recovery effort may have to be suspended for many reasons, for example, leaving the office at the end of a work day. With this feature, you can save the current session. You can reload it at a later time and continue the session where it was stopped.

A session file can be a great time saver when a drive has been scanned using the Long Search, which may take a few hours.

Saving a File Scavenger® session

Click File, Session, Save. Select a folder and filename to save the session file in. This folder must not be on the subject drive. Depending on the number of files found, a session file can be a few kilobytes to tens of megabytes or even larger.
