I’m having trouble finding a recovery utility that meets my need. Ext4magic and extundelete don’t seem to allow for recovery of a specific directory, only working on the entire filesystem. Photorec can browse directories, doesn’t support ext4. Is there anything out there that can do both?

    Are you able to get it to work with ext4? It doesn’t give me the “undelete” option.

      It has been a few years since I had to recover files. But, as far as I can remember, I have only used ext4 filesystem. I also booted Testdisk from a flashdrive; I may have used Hiren’s Boot CD or something similar.

      I am sorry I am not able to help you much. But, I do hope you are able to recover your files.
