DFSee version 7.12 has been released today

The first release where I consider RESIZE for NTFS to be fully reliable!


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!
