Bug ID: 432762 Summary: Corrupted Filesystem and Missing Documents Directory Product: dolphin Version: 19.12.3 Platform: Kubuntu Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: major Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: martr...@yahoo.com CC: kfm-de...@kde.org Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Organizing and backing up files. Rebooted computer into Win7 OS and then returned to Kubuntu 20.04. The directory /home/user/Documents could not be found. This is approximately 6 GiB of data missing. Immediately shut down computer and started attempts at date recovery from spare HDD with R-Linux, testdisk, fsck. R-Linux and testdisk show intentionally deleted files from weeks before. fsck indicate no faults. No trace of the directory or files it contained can be located. Made read only image of partition and saved to external drive. Already had 2 week old image on identical HDD in same computer. Could compare the size of the 2 week old image with the corrupt directory structure. Two week image(with Documents folder intact via Dolphin properties: 51.5 GiB, 62,283 files and 5836 subfolders. Corrupted home directory(missing Documents folder) via Dolphin properties: 34.2 GiB, 85,234 files and 8279 subfolders. Using grep, I can find indications of the missing documents on the corrupt home directory, explaining some of the +23000 files and +2500 subfolders. The data is still in place but there is no index into the file structure. STEPS TO REPRODUCE Never seen before, hope to never see again.
