Mageia forum

Does mageia have good recovery software with a ui?
I tried test disk, it seemed to find the partition but I couldn't get it to recover the files, menu system was cumbersome.

Might have better luck with a ui.

Can you please provide more details what you want to recover? Deleted files, a damaged partition, a missing filesystem ... ?
And this is mostly being done via CLI tools. A GUI doesn't magically make better tools.
