DW replaces volume directories. Hopefully it takes a broken/corrupt one and salvages data and recreates a good directory; then with your blessing, replaces the corrupt one with the good one.

Why is this helpful? Because if a file's data is sound but you can't find the file, the file content is still useless to you. Rebuilding the directory makes the file's data once again available to you. It's that simple.

Uhm, sorry for being sooo newbie, but I'm curious - can anyone explain what Disk Warrior does? How does replacing a directory fix anything?
