• What to do with obsolete iMacs and MacBooks

  As a retro tech enthusiast I beg of you not to trash them. Put them on facebook marketplace, craigslist, ebay, whatever. Nerds like me will take them off your hands happily, and regular people can still use them for daily tasks. I'm typing this out on a 2014 macbook pro, and I use a 2011 imac for any fun side projects I like doing so I don't mess up my main PC. You can also donate them to goodwill or salvation...

• Hard drive showing 100% active time

  Clone your drive with Gparted Live USB or Clonezilla Live USB. Source: 10 months ago

• Remove Fedora from dual boot with Windows 11

  If the recovery partition is between them you will have to move the recovery partition into the empty space using something like Gparted on a USB stick and then expand the C partition with disk partition or easeUS. Source: about 1 year ago

• Cannot extend partition after shrinking it

  Where you trying to extend E: or F:? In any way I've heard that GParted may help with partition problems like this altough I'm not really sure. Source: about 1 year ago

• Extend c: drive partition in windows 10

  In order to extend a partition, the unallocated space must immediately follow the partition. If there's something between the partition and the unallocated space, then you'll need to use a more sophisticated partition manager to rearrange things. GParted can do this, for example. I think Macrium Reflect can do this, too, though I usually use it for cloning. Source: about 1 year ago

• My abusive ex-boss emailed me today asking for code I already provided when I left “by tomorrow”. I quit this job four months ago.

  GetDataBack is a GUI program that is also quite powerful, but I haven't used it in many years, so YMMV. And it requires purchase to actually copy out the "maybe recoverable" data. Source: over 1 year ago

• Created new Partition over my existing Backup Partition while migrating to Windows 11

  You tried to absolutely useless tools. It does not mean better software can actually recover the data but it should at least be tried before making assumptions about recoverability of the data. Scan with for example R-Studio (r-tt.com) and GetDataBack (runtime.org). If these come up empty handed as well then it does not look too good. Source: about 2 years ago

• Hey i could use some helpful info DMDE

  It sounds like you used an external drive for Media Creation Tool target. Unfortunately this writes enough data to the drive to largely overwrite file system structures that were on that drive. It depends on for example file system somewhat if partial file system based recovery is possible, DMDE might not be best tool for that. If file system was NTFS you may want to try GetDatBack from runtime.org. Source: over 2 years ago
