I am using Ubuntu 21.04, Gnome 3.38.5.
Just 1 folder gives me:
ls: reading directory '.': Input/output error
the rest of the Hard Disc works fine. It happened while the external hard disc was moved during transfer and obviously the transfer stopped. I am also getting a
fsck from util-linux 2.36.1
when i run
sudo fsck /dev/sdc1
Also
sudo fsck.ext4 /dev/sdc1
Gives me
e2fsck 1.45.7 (28-Jan-2021)
/dev/sdc1 is in use.
e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting.
Now i can't see any files inside it and also, even though i was copying not moving, the files are nowhere.
I have checked those resources none seems to give me a solution:
