What is Bad Block Copy for Windows?

Copies data from file or raw harddisk ignoring Bad Blocks. If target file doesn't exists, ZEROs are written instead of unreadable blocks. If target file exists, its blocks, coresponding to Bad Blocks in source are not touched. Thus, if you have some copies of the same file with Bad Blocks in different places, it is possible to completly restore the original file. To do this you should run bbcopy.exe with same target, but different sources. You can use other harddisk of same of greater size as target.

Works under all Windows versions - Windows (95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP/etc.). bbcopy is similar to Unix dd utility. The main difference is that bbcopy is oriented on data recovery. Thus, it has 'ignore errors' mode and equal input and output offsets by default.
