This scripts allow to add the TestDisk & PhotoRec to our project. It downloads the lastest version from internet and then add it to our project. It needs to allow the connection to internet, because uses a custom downloader (made by me).
If you have any problem with download, you can go to TestDisk webpage and download the Windows package (Normal Windows, don't use x64 version). Then copy the file to "%GlobalTemp%\TestDisk & PhotoRec\Testdisk.zip" and the script should detect the file and avoid the download.
Personally, I've to say about both programs that are extraordinary because with Testdisk i've recovered a lost partition easily, and after recover the filesystem all files still working fine, and with PhotoRec i've recovered files from about 6 years old from a Camera SD card (i've not looking for that files, but is good).
