• We have corrected the error when results of raw recovery were saved.
• Sectors block reading algorithm reaction on reading error has been improved. Now if an error occurs, it reads single sector in PIO mode.
• FAT16 Translator - we have corrected the error that appeared when you added incorrect shift points at FAT table analysis.
• Translator mode - LBA field is unlocked in shift points search (you can set the value manually).
• Now folders with forbidden symbol '/' in the name are saved. It is important for HFS+.
• For HFS+ we have added indexes to increase the speed of result processing.
• For HFS+ now "Scan partition" context menu is always available.
• For FAT32 we have corrected the error when files of size more than 2 Gb couldn't appear in explorer at some circumstances.
• We have solved the issue when the last symbol in file or catalogue name is dot '.' (it is important for HFS+).
