    • Help! corrupt data forks, wont open?


      Ill cut this brief.

      I wiped my hard disk and backed up my work in progress Nova plug onto zip.

      I didnt bother to reformat the Zip as macOS. (i know, idiocy)

      My plug now wont boot in resedit. Says no resource fork.

      New folder has appeared in the same folder as my plug, called RESOURCE.FRK, and a new file called FINDER.DAT

      Am I screwed?

      thanks

    • Ugh... I would be afraid so...

      I don't know of any tools that copy a file to the resource fork... Though SuperResEdit can open the data fork as if it was a resource, as in you can open it with a resource editor, so you may be able to salvage something.

      Try here, there are many other links out there. This is a GREAT editor in it's own right, and indespensible for EVNing.
