Resuming interrupted spinrite session

Question

Everytime I interrupt my spinrite session, it prompt me with a percentage telling me that I could resume the session at the point of interrupt, this is all great but I never knew how to resume it.

As the drive get larger and larger, more often than usual my spinrite would complete it stuff overnight like it use to.

Can someone please tell me how I could resume it with the percentage i was prompted.

Thanks in advance.

From the manual.

Command Line Options

SpinRite may be started by following the “SpinRite” command with a number of optional “command line” keywords to cause its normal operation to be altered in a number of ways.

...

Resume

When operating under “Auto” mode, SpinRite normally ignores whether any partitions might have been interrupted in the past and performs its work from the beginning of each hard disk partition, rather than resuming where the prior work was suspended. The “Resume” keyword causes SpinRite to pick up where it left off from the point of interruption on those partitions that had work suspended.

Example

The command line below will run SpinRite on partitions C: and D:, resuming operation on those partitions that had previously been suspended at depth level 7, without requiring interaction from the user:

A:SPINRITE Auto Resume Drive C: D: Level 7 (Enter)
