MFTExtractor

A Parser of Master File Table NTFS file system.

Using this tool you can explore $MFT NTFS and its file system attributes. You can selectively extract filesystem information of record or for a range of records. In addition, you can export the contents of files.

Exporting files can be achieved either by mounting the evidence and providing its physical drive order and partition number or by using the acquired forensic image (Expert Witness Format), or virtual machine disk format.

Examples

you can now explore NTFS by providing physical drive number and partition number e.g. -physicaldrive 0 -partition 1 translates to \\.\PHYSICALDRIVE0 D drive respectively,

or by using as input an expert witness format image e.g. -evidence path_to_evidence -partition 1.
