Data... not recovery but rather "retrieval"

My question pertains to the following topic I posted:

How windows 10 on one of my HDD's trashed ITSELF after just a couple of months

I got 3 hard drives: - M.2 prototype from 2015 with a 128GB capacity, - Western Digital Black edition 2TB hard drive from 2014, - 512GB SSD from 2020. The M.2 contains pop!_os and utilizes the SSD for extended storage, while the 2TB HDD Contains windows. Barring the details aside, lets just say...

The HDD is a mess of fumbled repair attempts and unfinished half-rolled back windows updates. I have recovered most of the urgent files except one, it report a following error:

How would I best go about retrieving the folder in question?

That there's usually a disk error. You can try copying it to alternative media. Instead of copying it to the disk you were trying, try another destination disk.

I AM copying it from a different disk. I have recovered all the other folders from the affected drive to the parent drive, except this one won't give.

You might have lost the data then. There's data recovery software like photorec, but that's mostly used if you've accidentally deleted stuff. It might be able to recover this but I'd not count on it.

A colleague of mine used sleuthkit successfully: http://www.sleuthkit.org/. He said it was a lot of work though.
