Word Doc Corruption Due to Document Map? Steps to Repair

Word document corruption can occur due to a variety of reasons. One of the relatively less cited reasons is use of Document Map option. The Document Map allows you to quickly go through a long Word document whilst keeping track of your location in it. It offers you a flexible view of a Word file and allows you to select the level of detail to display. However, you can run into corruption problems while using this option with a document. In corruption scenarios, the text of the Document Map becomes very small or unreadable. In worst cases, the document itself becomes corrupt and exhibit strange behavior including unusual page numbering, incorrect document layout, strange characters etc. To overcome data inaccessibility problems, you can try some effective measures or use a backup copy of the document. However, if no assistance is available, you must use a third-party Word repair software.

Consider a scenario, wherein, you have a huge Word 2003 document (on Windows XP-based system), which is actually a thesis paper. You often have to jump to different headings in the document to edit text or check references and that's why you have enabled the Document Map option. One fine morning, when you decide to add some extra inputs, you find that the font size in the Document Map pane has become too small, and almost unreadable. Additionally, there are some extra headings which appear and vanish randomly.

Chkdsk Can't Repair FAT32 Volume

FAT32 is supported by Windows XP, 2003, 2000 and Vista (logical drives) and holds cluster values in 32-bit field. This file system can undergo corruption and need Data Recovery. The primary repair option is to run Chkdsk. Windows includes Chkdsk so as to check file system integrity and fix logical errors and can be run through Command Prompt or Recovery Console. 

In few of the cases, the Chkdsk utility may unexpectedly quit without curing corruption. Though the corruption exists and volumes are corrupt and inaccessible, but the utility may prompt the correct file system type:

"The type of the file system is FAT32.
Volume Serial Number is C408-2213"

Chkdsk Can't Repair FAT32 Volume

However, if we run Chkdsk, without the use of any command-line switches, the volume is reported corrupt and running chkdsk e: command may prompt an error, but the corruption problem may still remain the same:

"The type of the file system is FAT32.
Volume Serial Number is C408-2213

Errors found. CHKDSK cannot continue in read-only mode.

Reason

This is a specific problem when Boot sector (Primary program to boot the system) is corrupt. The errors lies in the way Chksk handles the Boot sector and its backup copy, which is located at sector 6 of logical drive. Ideally, Chkdsk should make use of the backup copy to offer Data Recovery, but it doesn't do this because the primary boot sector is not located in a bad sector and contains invalid information and at this condition Chkdsk fails to use the backup copy of Boot sector.

Solution

In order to gain file system repair and hence Data Recovery, this is vital that the backup copy must be restored for use. We can make use of DiskProbe utility which can replace the corrupt primary Boot sector information, placed at sector 0 with that of Boot sector copy, placed at sector 6.

·        DiskProbe is a GUI sector editor tool and is operable when the user has local Administrator rights. This is a specialized tool which can repair many of the disk corruption errors, replace the MBR, damaged partition table information and Boot sectors as well. But, viewing the boot sectors as a FAT boot sector through View menu can make the backup copy also corrupt and hence Data Recovery Software remain the only solutions to retrieve the lost data after formatting the drive ( Formatting refreshes the file system)

Data Recovery Software are the powerful applications which can scan the drive for lost data and then recover it. These applications are safe and interactive at Data Recovery and hence are complete to extract data.

Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery uses the powerful scanning algorithms and offers Data Recovery through graphically rich interface. This Data Recovery Software is compatible with FAT16, FAT32, VFAT, NTFS and NTFS5  file systems. Stellar also offers different Data Recovery Software for UNIX, Novell, Macintosh and Linux operating systems.
