I am attempting to recover files off of a failing external hard drive onto another external. However, I was hoping to do this folder by folder instead of cloning the entire drive into a disk image.
I have spent the past 4 hours trying to grasp the concept of installing ddrescue into my computer and running it. I used the basic 'dd' command in the past and it was pretty simple. ddrescue is a bit more complex for me.
Could someone guide me through this process step by step please...starting with the installation process?? I have looked at a handful of sites explaining the process and they have not worked for me.
