How Do You Copy A File And Ignore Cyclic Redundancy Check Errors?
Cyclic redundancy check errors are common when trying to read data from a damaged CD or DVD. Usually the computer becomes less responsive and you hear repetitive seek noises from the drive for up to a minute. And then, if you are using Windows XP, you will encounter “Cannot copy… Data error (cyclic redundancy check)”. The copy process is then aborted with no option of retrying to read from the damaged area or skipping over it. This is very frustrating when copying large files because you must try copying again from the beginning. Follow these steps to copy a file from a damaged disk. • Launch JFileRecovery, a free cross platform file recovery utility (link provided below). • Specify the source file that needs to be recovered. • Specify a destination file to copy the file to. • Click “Begin Recovery” and wait for the recovery process to complete. • The location of damaged parts of the file will be indicated and you may retry these areas. The destination file can now be used and copied
