I want to see if I can recover files from a 2TB HDD. This HDD keeps asking for permission when I click a folder. When I get to the folder I see I have all the files but they all have a file size of 0 bytes. Also going to recycle bin I get a request to empty the bin for which I don't on account that I might delete recoverable data. Is there a method to fixing this HDD without having to use those recovering data apps?
Here is some info that might help:
