Hi everybody,
and thanks in advance for any answers.
After head swap i need only to recover 3 file type from a huge NTFS partition, which its FS structures are all correctly identifyied.
My customer only need 3 file extension types, which related total capacity is about 1% of the whole partition dimension.
How can I correctly set saving option to save only these ?

Scan MFT of NTFS partition.

Than on MFT Scan --> Root --> Right Click --> Find Files --> *.jpg; *.pdf; *.doc; *.mp3 or whatever files you like.

Thank you MasterT. This is what I was looking for.

Good method, also there is an option of the filter by extensions (MFT Scan --> Root --> Filter --> Ext )
