Partition defects/MFT/MBR when changing one partition or after recovery

Thread needs solution

I experienced several times, after reovery of one partition or change of size that another partition get defect /damaged.

On a 1 TB HDD I have e.g. 7 partitions. Some days ago I had to recover a system partition at the beginning of the HDD,

after completion a data partition at the end was defect. 

DD12 and chkdsk said, the 1. sector at that cannot be read changing to the 2. but no success.

I cannot explain this behaviour.

Exactly after making a recovery of a system partition at the beginning of HDD the last partition at the end, only data, there MFT get corrupted, but also mirror of MFT !

But just working before without any problems.

These kind of effects I encountered several times using Acronis in some years, not often, but possible.

There must be some side effects or inproper execution of some commands, or faults in progam,

I cannot explain these effects in a different way !

 

Also in former times with Win XP this happens sometimes with Partition Magic.

So that others say, only use Windows tools, but no third party software to change partitions and so on.
