B-Dukes Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 I was transferring 32GB of files from one flash drive to another. During that process, my computer crashed and shut down unexpectedly. When I powered back on, there were many files missing that were not in the folders they were supposed to be in; in neither of the flash drives. I tried several recovery programs, but I had no luck yet. They all seem to find the ones that were transfered, not necessarily deleted or corrupted. I know that the chances of getting them back are very rare, but is there any way at all? I had so many files. If I have to pay for a good program, then I'll pay. The price doesn't madder to me. I just need to find a way to get the files back. I'm pretty desperate. Is there any solution at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 I just had a very successful experience with Recuva, but that was on a harddisk (where it recovered some 22,000 files). But I have no idea what, if anything, will work on a flash drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Dukes Posted June 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 This program is working out great. I chose to scan all locations and I had the scan go on over night, and I'm finding all of my old files again. Thank you! I really didn't think I was going to get them back. It's so much better than the other programs I used which were trial versions. So happy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonnie Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Check your recycle bin? I know this is a USB stick and I can't be sure, but if you are lucky any file delete, even from an external drive, might still be in the recycle Bin.If not, then there are various options to recover your file. One of them is recuva, which attempts to recover deleted files even from a USB stick.Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
