Hello,
I corrupted my WBFS-HD byt switching off the power while playing Metroid. Now USB loader GX and WBFS Manager 3.0 don't recognize it anymore as WBFS, they want me to format it...
I wanted to recover the games I had in it (about 140), is there any recovery tool or other way to get my games back?
Thanks.

I searched for 'wit'.

Now, may you help me, please?

All your games are probably gone. Mine hard drive has been corrupted twice, once with WBFS, once with FAT32. Mine actually broke when it corrupted on FAT32.

Did you try and use the HDD in Linux? Bet you that would have recovered it,. Not the games, just the HHD.
OP: I dont think you can.

Thank you.

I found my WBFS device which is /dev/sdb1
I did the test (wwt format --recover --test /dev/sdb1

But I'm scared of doing the wwt format --recover --force /dev/sdb1 because I don't want to lose any data.

Any hints before I do it?
