Does PC-Doctor check the integrity of disc partition headers when performing a scan?

I keep getting a warning message from my backup software that the alternate header of a GPT partition is damaged. However, including PC-Doctor, no utility I have tried has discovered damage.

I have requested confirmation from the developers, but I don't believe that our software is able to identify corrupted data (in this case the partition info). However if the corruption is caused by the drive beginning to fail, that will be discovered by our software.

I will let you know if I find any additional information about this, but for the time being you may need to investigate a partition repair tool in order to resolve the issue.
