I recently copied an entire partition (98 gb) to my backup drive and have since formatted the entire drive (corrupted files.) I ran a live version of Ubuntu and when I ran the dd command I specified the entire drive (/dev/...0) as the input file and the output file as /media/drivename/backup .



How do i make these files readable as a directory structure? I need to access them and restoring them onto a drive makes a major waste of time. Currently reading the files on a Windows Server 2016 machine if it matters, and the files where originally from a Windows install.



Thank you so much.
