[@StrongRecovery] Hi RB, I completely understand the concern — but those warnings are actually the software protecting you, not a sign of danger. StrongRecovery scans in strict read-only mode and never writes to the drive you’re recovering from. The popups you saw are there to stop you from accidentally saving recovered files back onto the same drive, which is the one thing that could overwrite lost data. As long as you install on a separate drive (which you did) and save recovered files to a different drive, your data is completely safe — the scan itself cannot harm anything. You’re doing it exactly right by reading first.
