Scanning large objects may take a long time. Sometimes, only a smaller area of a drive needs to be scanned or searched for files. Such area is called a region . A region can be created on any object in the R‑Studio 's Drives panel.
Created regions can be scanned, and files on them can be recovered in the same way as from drives or logical disks .
Created regions can be deleted or their size can be changed.
Note: R‑Studio does not create anything real on the drive. Regions are virtual objects that do not affect actual data on the drive.
