- This program enables the user to easily determine what file a
- specified cluster belongs to. The first cluster on any disk is
- considered by DOS to be #2.
- Some utilities will check all the clusters on your disk to see if
- any are bad. But once you know which cluster is bad, you have no easy
- way of determining what file that cluster belongs to. This program
- solves that problem. You give it the cluster number in question, and
- it will search all of the directories on the disk to determine which
- file "owns" it. If the cluster specified is invalid (0, 1, or greater
- than the maximum), an error will be flagged. If the cluster is not in
- use, or if it is marked as bad, or if it appears to be lost, the
- program will say so. Once you have determined which file the cluster
- belongs to, you can then copy it to another place on the disk, or
- RECOVER it, or simply delete it. You may then use the MARK program to
- mark that cluster as bad.
-
-
