Good evening,

I am new to MacOS and I can't install PhotoRec. The fact is that I am using Catalina in x64. Could someone provide me with the steps to follow?

Following the installation instructions, after installing Homebrew, I launch TestDisk and I paste a copy of the window that appears. I can't go any further.

Hello,

I see "

", which clearly means it doesn't like your processor model...
The PhotoRec you downloaded may not be compatible with your Mac and/or Catalina.

Hello,

However, I installed it via Homebrew from the terminal...

I finally found the command that allows you to launch Testdisk

sudo TestDisk
