Can't Read From Source File Or Disk

If you get this error as I did when copying file, then you probably have a bad sector on the drive.

You still may be able to play the file but this error message will appear when you do.

You could try to use EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard to recover the file :https://www.easeus.com/datarecoverywizardpro/

or MiniTool Partition Wizard to check and repair errors




 Or DiskGenius : https://www.diskgenius.com/manual/verify-or-repair-bad-sectors.php


In my case there was a bad sector on the drive and the file was corrupt, I was able get part of the video by placing into VideoRedo then removing bad section of the video then exported the video :  https://www.videoredo.com/en/index.htm#

After i was finished with the video file I used a few standard format tools and partition tools but the drive would not format. I ended up using a low level format tool that worked a treat : https://hddguru.com/software/HDD-LLF-Low-Level-Format-Tool/
BE CAREFUL TO FORMAT THE CORRECT DRIVE / PARTITION
