DFSee is the SWISS-ARMY-KNIFE for disk and filesystem problems. With FDISK-like displays, analysis and recovery, FIX commands, UNDELETE for HPFS/NTFS, imaging and cloning. For people familiar with older versions of DFSee (5.xx and older :-) it will be good to know that the menu-system introduced in version 6, and greatly expanded in version 7, makes the program a whole lot easier to use!
