Question Corrupted External Drive

[Laptopdummy1]

Hello,
I have a 1TB external drive (SP Armor) that I had encrypted with USB Secure 2.2.0.0 a couple years back. I stored a lot of .fbr (Flackback) files on it, and everything worked well. Then the USB cord got ripped out of the laptop accidentally, and now USB Secure will not allow me to log-in when I plug the drive in. It just freezes itself, basically. I've tried using Tenorshare 4DDiG, and it did recover a LOT of files from the drive, but none of them .fbr files.

Is there any software that would be best suited to recovering the .fbr files? I would imagine getting past a corrupted encryption is... not simple. But if there is any suggestion I'd love to hear it. Thanks!

If encryption were easy to circumvent, it wouldn't be much good, would it?

You would certainly hope so. But out here in reality, there are multiple softwares available to circumvent it. As with all tools, it is not invulnerable. Thanks for your help lol.

And you've found such for your particular encryption thing?

If so, you may want to reconsider using that thing in the future.

Yeah, I’m definitely not interested in using this “encryption” again, that’s for sure. Just need to salvage what I can.

I'd say it probably isn't the encryption method that is something wrong with, but rather the choice of using that drive as main and only location for certain files.
