Partition Table Doctor is a powerful program for Windows that gives you the ability to restore hard disk partition structures. It is a convenient solution for a wide range of hardware errors, except for the physical failure. With the help of this tool, you can automatically check and fix the master boot record, partition table, as well as the boot sector of a partition that contains an error.

Principle of operation

As a rule, damage to the partition structure occurs due to a sudden power outage. In rare cases this happens as a result of a virus attack. The main symptom of this kind of problem is that the hard disk does not contain any data and behaves normally. Thanks to Partition Table Doctor, you are able to recover partitions with various files systems, including FAT, NTFS, EXT and SWAP from the following types of hard drives:

IDE;
ATA;
SATA;
SCSI.

Create a backup

In addition, it is possible to create a bootable CD or floppy disk. In order to do this, you need to press the CTRL+D combination. The resulting image file may be recorded by different disc burning software such as AnyBurn or BurnAware. Such a backup can help in situations where you cannot boot Windows due to a failure in the hard drive partition structure.
