CROSSPOST FROM r/datarecovery
so, I have 2 old discs that have been laying there for a while and when I tried to copy from them they were behaving weirdly, some folders couldn"t get access and so on, so I"d like to simply run some free tool to scan them and recover the weak sectors. I found Victoria, but I am not sure about some of the settings, can someone please tell me how to set it up?

I am not sure if I should use remap first and then refresh just to make sure, or the other way around. This is what I found:
- Remap โ the damaged sectors will be replaced with backup ones.
- Restore โ the program will restore the performed sectors.
also what"s the difference between Verify and Read (default one). what about the other settings?
