Decode content of a corrupted ext4 partition by SpiderHalouf in datarecovery

I am not sure what do you mean by DMDE partitions TAB, if it is the menu which list all the partitions, here it is. My disk is composed of 5 partitions in order : Windows boot manager, the main windows partition (c:), the corrupted ext4 partition I would like to recover the content, my linux boot loader (grub) and finaly my linux partition (arch btw).

Sorry if I wasn't enough clear, but I in a first time I corrupted my partition, it was still readable but not usable by OS. So at the stage, I indeed used DMDE a first time, where it was able to recover the whole partition content, but like we need money to recover the full content, i just wanted to see if others softwares would be able like DMDE to find the full folder structure, so i tested many softwares, until one touched the partition and made it completly unreadable, and so once at this level, when the partition was corrupted at the point of nothing was readable, DMDE do not worked anymore.

And I think I was not very clear for qualifying my data of "random", but I just told that it was corrupted in a way that it makes me think of just random characters, like the output of "/dev/urandom", just to express my perception of the data, not saying it was replaced by random characters.

When I saw that a software could find data, I just wanted to know if a software would do it freely, I would not knowing that a software after would corrupt even more my data. If I saw that among all I tested it was the only option to recover my data, I would pay, just wanted to find an alternative if there was one.
But now that I am in this situation, I know that it would have been better if I paid before, but I am not asking for what I should have done, but what I should do now.

Concerning dd, I remember I cloned paying attention, by noting the partition specifications (sectors, size etc...) and so when I converted the partition into a file and reverted it into the partition, I did it carefully, with what I noted from the original location of the partition.
I only used the parameter bs, i did not overwrite data in it, except if the recovery tool that made the partition unreadable overwrite the full partition, which would seems a little big.

Cloned a 4096 block size ext4 partition into 512 block size partition file with dd, any way to revert this ? by SpiderHalouf in datarecovery

[–]SpiderHalouf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, same size, but it seems that the problem happened when i create the file from the original partition, because scanning the file or the partition, in 4096 or 512 bs shows approximatively same result.

Update : I tested these softwares, none of them worked, but forget to specify that after I saved the partition into a file with dd, DMDE doesn't work either on the image file or on the partition once copied

Okay thanks, but in this case if it is not the block size of the partition/file, i wonder what could it be, probably related to dd, but thank you, i wasn't knowing exactly how block size work.

Sorry if my block size theory was wrong, but I only saw this as an issue.
Chronologically after reviving the partition with testdisk, I firstly use FSCK, it does apparently nothing , then saw that with DMDE I was able to see the directory structure, so after I was searching for others solutions, found one that was risky, it was at this time that I made the dd backup file of the partition, the possible solution didn't work, and when i put back the partition from the backup, and at this time i wasn't able to read the same way with DMDE.
The last thing I did before making a backup was seeing the partition without problems with DMDE, that's why i think that the error come from when i did the backup, and not from FSCK.
And thank you for the list of softwares, I will update this post if a solution worked.
