howdy folks,
Sorry about the length of this post, but I
think the information will be helpful to most of you out
here.
Most times using copying and pasting files
through either this PC or file explorer is the easiest way to
backup files and for the most part it works without a hitch.
However, There are those situations where
sometimes files won’t copy because for a reason totally
unbeknownst to me you will get a destination path too long
message and you’ll have to reduce the file name, even though
windows allows you to copy files well beyond the old 8.3
format and extension conventions. There’s also the cannot
read from source disc error and the cannot write to disc
error. Those errors can mean that your hard drive may be in
some trouble.
To avoid problems like these, you can
download a free file copying utility called unstoppable
copier. It’s up to version 5.2, works on all windows systems,
and is totally accessible with NVDA. The copying process is
slower than using the basic copying and pasting methods
through this PC and file explorer, however, the advantage of
using this utility is that it not only copies the file, it
also scans and removes anything that would cause the file to
become truncated or corrupt. It also can Recover files from
disks with physical damage. Allows you to copy files from
disks with problems such as bad sectors, scratches or that
just give errors when reading data. The program will attempt
to recover every readable piece of a file and put the pieces
together. Using this method most types of files can be made
usable even if some parts were not recoverable in the end. To
get this utility go to

I was able to completely repair and
successfully reformat 2 external hard drives using this
program. Hope this helps some of you folks out there and sorry
about the length.
