Try to salvage files from a damaged btrfs filesystem. More information: <https://btrfs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/btrfs-restore.html>.

  • Restore all files from a btrfs filesystem to a given directory:
    sudo btrfs restore path/to/btrfs_device path/to/target_directory
  • List (don't write) files to be restored from a btrfs filesystem:
    sudo btrfs restore --dry-run path/to/btrfs_device path/to/target_directory
  • Restore files matching a given regex ([c]ase-insensitive) files to be restored from a btrfs filesystem (all parent directories of target file(s) must match as well):
    sudo btrfs restore --path-regex regex -c path/to/btrfs_device path/to/target_directory
  • Restore files from a btrfs filesystem using a specific root tree `bytenr` (see `btrfs-find-root`):
    sudo btrfs restore -t bytenr path/to/btrfs_device path/to/target_directory
  • Restore files from a btrfs filesystem (along with metadata, extended attributes, and Symlinks), overwriting files in the target:
    sudo btrfs restore --metadata --xattr --symlinks --overwrite path/to/btrfs_device path/to/target_directory
