Hi LuHulu,

A truncated or corrupted file can occur if your camera loses power while taking a photo. Also (though I'm not sure about this), if your stored image has a cyclic redundancy. I have hundreds of images stored on DVD's that are unreadable because of cyclic redundancy. I'm not sure whether this program is suitable for such errors though.

I had some rescued PSD and JPG images that are corrupted from a memory stick that got locked up. Couldn't access it all, so used a recovery software. Not all the images were ok a lot of them became corrupt and I have been waiting for something to rescue them and enable me to view and work on them. This did not work, failed miserably. The file when opening becomes an invalid file. So what determines the factor of 'Corrupt'? You can't get more corrupt than my recovered images as they have #SCF0098, this then turns it into #SCF0098.bmp. I tried it on several different images and alas no luck.

For those of you who want to see a corrupt image, I uploaded one here...

I tried it out with the program - had high hopes! It told me it was a bad image, and then the program crashed on me.

As for how images can get corrupt, on Windows XP and prior OS's, whenever you told the computer to defragment, it would occasionally screw up the images.

In any case, I have a whole folder of images like this on a DVD, and this program was not able to recover any of them.

So waste of download, waste of space.

Just tried it with 3 jpeg images, 2 of which were corrupted and 1 wasn't.

Picture Doctor said all 3 images were 'bad' and couldn't recover any of them, so seems pretty useless.
