[QUOTE="allen-uk, post: 1791537, member: 383404"] Alsoft confirm that I'm barking up the wrong tree. APFS disks (which High Sierra now seems to produce by default) are not recognised or rebuilt by DiskWarrior. They write: [I]• What you need to know 1) DiskWarrior Recovery Maker 1.1 is compatible with macOS 10.13 High Sierra when the High Sierra startup (boot) disk is formatted as Mac OS Extended (HFS Plus). Creating a 10.13 recovery flash drive will not allow DiskWarrior to rebuild APFS disks. 2) DiskWarrior Recovery Maker 1.1 is not compatible with macOS 10.13 High Sierra when the High Sierra startup (boot) disk is formatted as Apple File System (APFS). The APFS Recovery Disk is not recognized and will not show as a source from which to build a recovery disk. • What can you expect soon DiskWarrior Recovery Maker 1.2 will be released soon. It will be compatible with both HFS Plus and APFS startup disks. [/I]So fingers crossed for this 1.2 upgrade. Allen [/QUOTE]
