Thank you so much, your video has been a tremendous help, thought I'd lost my data for good, but thanks to your know how and tips, all data was restored perfectly :)
Perfect Timing with this video. I deleted Steam drive yesterday, instead of the Thumbdrive I meant to format.
As always, thanks Rich. You make it simple and fun.
What if I do it using the SSD card running the system?
Dude, thanks for real. Just recovered my 100 Hours Dark souls 3 save. I thought it had cloud sync with Steam, imagine my face when i booted up the game after formatting the PC and my saves weren't there...thankfully i went to play it right after reinstalling windows and the program was able to restore it with no problems.
Rich! Great video thanks for sharing!
Glad I found your valued information - thanks
Thank you so much for your invaluable information, highly appreciate it, keep it up the outstanding job, have a great day.
Awesome (yet again!) 😊
It worked! My child deleted my files, and I was away on a business trip, so I was afraid I am too late - I saw it 7 days later but it still worked. Thanks!
TY so much for the educational videos!!
you have no idea how much greatfulf I am for finding this video. man you the best. keep up the good work.
Once again, magic! Thank you again!
Hello,
I Watched your video discussing Recuva. Thanks for sharing such a informational video. Could you provide guidance on which software is better between Recuva and Stellar for data recovery? I'm currently facing data loss and I'm uncertain which software to try. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
You just saved my life. Can't thank you enouph 🙌🙌
Hi Rich, thank you for the great work. Just a quick one. If the files i needed to recover on the drive / computer were saved on the desktop, documents or downloads. How do I go about that?
Amazing Info. Simple explained and very effective
Thank you so much! I was just wasting my time searching on youtube thank god you helped me .
Question: did you also made a video about mirroring drives?
I had some dataloss after installing Windows while using mirrored drives... got the data back though, after seeing this video about deleted data recovery. If not, could you do a video about that?
I believe it's pronounced Ree-cuv-ah. As in "recover".
It is a corrupted spelling of "recover", but it would have benefited from an extra "v" to hammer the point home 😆
This sounds amazing, gotta try it out soon :D was close to buy software, thank god i found your video.
Awesome video, I checked your channel, your video is funny! You earned a subscriber, Take care!
You saved me, thank you so much. With the latest version, it make the original file name and folder possible, great app.
Just remembered a 2TB drive I had shelved a couple of years back as it was partitioned in half and had data on both partitions, when it lost the partition. I did not know how or if I could recover the data so I just shelved the drive.
Any thoughts ?
Subscribed, this is an exceptional content and your explanation is articulated and on point, it was a masterclass on fixing problems.
Always go into data recovery attempts with a very high expectation of failure. Having thoroughly tested and attempted to use many products over the decades, few have any value at all.
Recover (phonetically think bruvva) is the correct pronunciation from what the company told me many years ago.
Recent new Subscriber here - Thank you for all your great Tech detailed computer help and advice videos! - I had a back up external storage 4TB SATA hard drive and somehow it was corrupted from a possible bad USB port on my computer - The SATA Drive ended up as a RAW Format with 2-4% used space? - I had almost 3.5 TB of files on it - Luckily I did have one other storage back up with most of the same back up files on it - Scary moment for me. I tried using a recovery program I found online to recover the files but it did not work - is it possible that all the Data is completely lost? or is there still hope for data recovery?
Thank you so much lost 17000 photos of my families life. I thought I had a house fire without the house fire until I found your video I want to say thank you so much. I was depressed all week about this and thank God it was able to recover.
How did you recovered all those? I can't recover them. You didn't use the hardrive? or you did it asap?
GOD OF WHAT??
Are you really recovered that 17k photos???!

I have questions for you I have window 11. and edge browser and I delete collections. I don't have them backup. Can
I recover them if I know the name of the folders in collections. If know name of the folders that get delete? If, how do I do it?
Thanks Linda
take my like ! other 99% youtubers show paid application and dont even mention that, i recover half of data from my old Western Digital from 2006! most pictures are fine ! some videos and very few music can be played . Thank you very much!
Great video. I used to use hiren’s booted like over 20 years ago and about 9 years ago I got robbed and lost all that plus some and I couldn’t remember the name of the software. I had the image of hirens on a cd and other doftware to fix pcs until I got robbed 9 years ago. Thanks for sharing and keep it up.
It sounds to me that they named this as if it's ghetto slang stereotype lol. Example "Hey bruh, you able to recova (recuva) my drive dawg?"
Thanks bro this video helped a lot
this video saved all of my data from my sd card thank you for this video! :)
How u doing sir I was watching some of ur videos. I just recovered some of my files from an unbootable windows drive I used a version of Linux from a usb but I can’t see anything on my download folder is that something that can only be recovered from the windows drive itself? I need to see if any other program can give me access to the download folder files before I try to restore the boot manager on that drive any suggestions?
I once had a hard drive that wouldn't boot at all. I had to learn how to use Test Disk and Photo Rec which are Linux based recovery tools. I had zero experience with Linux but I finally figured it out and got all my data files and photos back. I then trashed that HDD for a new one and reinstalled Windows. I've used Recuva to get back files and photos before even long after I realized I had deleted stuff. Luckily the files weren't overwritten and recoverd nicely. It works well.
Subscribed! Will this also work with corporate encrypted storage devices?
No. I highly doubt it.
Thank you, this works !
Now i just need to buy a 1tb hard drive to retrasnfer my data to so i can then copy it back to the original (currently formatted) hard drive later.
How does Recuva function on Shift+Del 'eted files? I tried a quite poor software that costed money and tried it on an SSD with TRIM. Of course it didn't work. I guess SD-cards are functioning simpler than SSD's, but still flash memory cells?
Just a little confused, if the usb was formatted already (this is why i am trying to recover the files lost due to formatting) I will still format a second time?
Hey man so my external hard drive with 3tb changed to ESD-USB and changed its storage to 32gb because I downloaded windows media creation tool will this work because im not sure I’m scared because I had important stuff on it if you could could u make a video on it
Hi i want to ask you this question, if the drive which i need to recover data is not available, i mean even the Drive like D or F i do not have these drives so what do i need to do?.
I recently bought a second hand WD Elements 18TB external USB hard drive for backup purposes. I initialised the drive on a Win 10 pro system and created a new simple volume but when formatting the drive I un-checked the quick format option and did a full format - it took 28 hours to complete. I did this believing that all data on this drive belonging to the previous owner would now be permantently deleted and un-recoverable. In your video you formated the SD card leaving the quick format box checked. Could you comment on the difference between quick and full formatting and whether or not a full format really does completely reset the drive to factory state? Nice work, just found your channel and subscribed.
Have used this software before to rescue data. Works wonders!
This my 1st time...
I agree!!! It worked!!!
Hey, I'm glad I found your video. I'm trying to recover a directory I foolishly deleted. I tried recuva but it takes HOURS to run and then tells me the swap file isn't large enough. Any thoughts as to how to proceed?
I’m not sure on this but you may need a drive bigger than the one you’re moving files from. It actually sounds like your situation would be successful otherwise.
Good video, however, when you delete it from the SD card, just because it does not go into the recycle bin does not mean they are deleted. They don't get really deleted until you remove the SD card because they are stored in a temp location and sometimes depending on availability, in memory. To prove that, simply hit CTRL + Z and your files will return. To permanently delete the files, hit Shift + Delete.
You have no idea how much you saved me with this comment thank you so much
@@kevinmoysen8765 you bet
Thank you! So tired of these "guide" that just end up as ads and all of the link in google is for paid software, like I get it that it is a profitable business to sell that kinda software but I know there is free software that can do the same or better so thank god for this guide
man it is so annoying to accidently delete your data even tho it isn't important data and mostly just personal stuff (music, video, etc) it is still something that I wish I could just recover to save time so I'm waiting on the scan rn
thankyou so much man due to this i am able to recover my sisters wedding photos
Thanks for the Video, recently reinstall my system with Dell recovery, on the process it asked me if I wanted to backup my Data which I DID NOT, will these worked after I Factory reseted with the Dell recovery??
crazy dude🔥
It works thank you so much 👍
will this work with an external HDD that was use with a Playstation 5 and Playstation 4 gaming console? the thing is the PS5 and PS4 does not recognized the external HDD and it keeps saying the file drive is unsupported when I plugged it in. I don't want to format the drive again because I fear I might lose all video games and save data that are store on there. I have not format it yet, so it is just sitting around until I can find out what to do next. In my case now, my laptop does not recognized it, well it does recognized the hdd but it does not have an assigned drive letter to it. So I can not access the HDD when I plugged it in. Should I format the drive in windows so i can use Recuva to try and recover the data? Any feedback is much appreciated. Thanks
Hello, my drive automatically converted to dynamic, and then I converted it into basic but lost all my important data. I used Wizir to recover the partition but didn't get a single file. Please help.
FANTASTIC CHANNEL!!!!! CAN I RECOVER A USER PROFILE? After a windows 10 update, a temp user file created which I didn't understand at the time. Black screen and 2 days of learning and through a series of watching you I got the system back but not my desktop or anything else. THANK YOU. Took me 2 days - slow learner. Problem is (if I have it right) the original user profile was deleted in my amateur process. I can see a new profile. There was a time where I could see all my files under the original profile but now that folder is empty. Can the original profile contents be recovered or do I have to rebuild my system once I have recovered the files. I lost all my setup for 365 including outlook important file structure and saved emails.
Hello, will this work for the windows 10 os drive. I formatted the drive :/c and reinstalled the os by mistake. I need to retrieve some pictures. Thanks
Please talk about special tools and techniques that can enable the recovery of a corrupt database like Oracle (I mean recovery of blocks and datafiles and clusters).
16:05 Do I have to worry about data being overwritten if the data I’m trying to recover is on an HDD?
thank u so much dude, that saved my life
Is there a way to securely delete just files or folders on a windows 11 sad machine to give it away? I really don’t want to format the whole drive
You are a lifesaver!!!
What happens if you instead, simply delete the partition on a hard disk instead of actually formatting it? Are the file names still lost or can you get them back?
did you find any software usefull please help me out>>>
Hi there,
Your a pretty good instructor and I tried following the procedure using Recuva portable which I downloaded onto a flash drive.
The laptop I'm trying to recover a specific Excel document was deleted both from the computer and recycle Bin.
I hardly used this laptop since this file was deleted but it's been sitting in a closet for a year.
Recuva found the Excel xlsx file and shows the size as being only 140 bytes, that the state is Excellent with No overwritten clusters detected.
When I try to open it, it says Excel cannot open the xlsx because the file format or file extension is not valid?
Not sure what to do next?
Me again,
I think I was able to open the Excel spreadsheet but there is nothing there.
Only shows 1KB which I know should be quite a bit larger memory being used. There was around 12 pages of info that I'm trying to recover.
Bro u help me a lot coz I was about to delete another folder just to delete another folder I mistakenly selected that was too big to even go to the recycling bin
Does the Recuva software need be installed before the data deleted?
Off topic question: About a year ago my Windows 10 Pro had a melt down and I spent a great deal of time fixing it, although I managed to loose my ability to log into my MS Account - I have a permanent license. I Could not recover my MS account as I had to supply a number of recent incoming email addys. I supplied many but MS would not accept them - they were from people in Real-estate and various Government agencies. All of them had very long addys, with many . this and . that as well as / this and /that. Can a Licensed MS tech phone MS and set my account straight again? My standard issue Outlook has been toast ever since. In general I need to know this so as I can be specific if this will work. I am in Canada so MS should be the same here.👍
hey, what if i have already downloaded files in the hard drive, would it overwrite the data? And can i still recover the old data?

I have tried everything possible i know of to open ot without losing the data in those patitions. Can i please 🙏 😅 have anyone help on these thanks
thanks for the help
I accidentally cloned a drive onto an external drive that had a ton of important data. What do you recommend using to recover the data that was overwritten on that external drive?
Nothing, there's unfortunately no way to recover data that's been overwritten.
wait. I don't get it. We download this in a different pc to flashdrive, then come back and fix it on the key PC? or just make this in a flashdrive and still can use the same pc?
A little misleading in that formatting the drive was a quick format, which simply overwrites the FAT and marks the space as free. Also, Recuva's capacity to restore files will depend on the colour of the circle before the file name-green for a very good chance of recovery, yellow for 50/50, and red for near zero.
Quick format is always the default. In order to do a longer format you have to actually uncheck the quick format selection.
@@CyberCPU Point is that quick format is practically identical to just deleting the files if not entirely identical. It also won't damage flash memory like a full format would since no bytes are actually being overwritten. If there is a tool that can recover reliably from a fully formatted drive that would be quite something. This is great information for the average user who might not have known this was possible though.
@@soulstenance it isn't possible in most cases. In the case of an accidental format, it's likely it will be a quick format. I don't know of a way to reliably recover files from a regular format.
@@CyberCPUFair point. 😁

It Worked!!!!
Mannn, thanx!!
I thought this was a video sellin a gimmick at 1st..but I was desperate & took a chance anyways..
I been tryin 2 recover files I lost in a folder due 2 a virus since Monday(5 days), it has been frustratin, to say the least....sleepless night, daily routine flow interrupted, overeating, etc.
Malware made 1 of my folders completely empty & unable to open...alot of those files have been there for months, & due to finance draw back, I have not been able to back them up like I normally due.
I followed this video step-by-step, & it worked!!!
I was able to see & retrieve every missin/deleted file, data, music, pics, video, documents, etc.!!!
And I saved those files to a new folder on anotha installed drive as recommended..
The program is free!!! It will ask u to upgrade, but it isn't necessary to upgrade the program to retrieve your missin files....the free version takes care of it all..
Whew!! Thanks again!!
Thank you sooooooooooo much!!!!
Hello, nice Video, I tried to do this with my iPod, but recuva said, that my iPod doesn’t have the right file type. What can I do?
for the goatee, I subscribe good sir...
Help!!!!! I used the Recueva and I don't have enough room to put the files in 1 single 1 TB drive. I was recovering a 1 tb SSD, and it recovered 1.5 TB of files. Now between 2, 1 TB drives I have enough room to put the files. But I can't click on a file at the top and hold SHIFT and click it in the middle to do half the files to recover, to do half at a time. Any advice? I'm currently searching their site to see if there is a solution, but without paying for the program. Even if I pay for the program, I don't even know if that would fix the problem? Need some advice, in the meantime, not shutting down my computer till I can resolve this dilemma. Please hurry if you have any advice! Sorry to come off as desperate, but I am! I know I could buy a 2 to 4 TB drive to fix it, but I am pretty broke.

I was trying to find a way to convert an Mac APFS to NTFS, without data loss, to share a bunch of files with a PC user. My Partition Wizard program would not convert APFS to NTFS without data loss. I even called the company and ask if it was possible. They said not possible. Then I got the idea to use the data recovery component of my Partition Wizard to "recover" files from the APFS partition and "restore" them to an NTFS partition. It worked great.
I have the older disk type portable drive iOmega RDWD-U2.
This fell over on its side. Now every time I plug it in, it asks to format.
Can this software recover this drive?
I tried using Recuva. "Failed to scan the drive: The handle is invalid." and "is not accessible" "the parameter is incorrect." Do this mean there is physical damage to the drive?
Hello. Can anyone suggest me something with my problem. I wrote the lyrics in a notepad on the computer. Somehow I lost all the text, although before I saw it it asked if I want to save it, I confirmed and all the text was deleted. Now I took that program and restored the old files, but it shows me my text completely in Chinese and with hieroglyphs. What does it mean?
when I did this it recovered all the photos good but the videos were just black screen, any tips??
Going with what you said on recovering "accidently" dot dot dot..
A good video on that line would be if someone has a USB-drive or any that when plugged in does not show it or say's it's corrupted..
I have, for a few clients attempted to bring back from the dead, those mentioned drives.. It took me a couple weeks to figure it out, but most of them I was able to recover data or make it usable again. The only ones I could not "FIX" were those with physical damage and a couple that were literally fried..
I believe this could make a very viewed video.. How many times have you went to plug in a usb-drive to have it not show up?? Yeah, me too.. Many of your other viewers may find that very handy..
Loved the video, I find them very informative & helpful...
Thank you for sharing..

Do you have a suggestion for a Drive that went into RAW format?
This is with an old 500 GB drive that quit working one year. Disk management would not see it. After a few years of trying again and again, it decided to work one day. I began transferring all the files, VIA "move", to a different drive. I had the faulty drive plugged into an external SATA reader. I did not know the USB3 cable was bad until I accidentally bumped the wire, while files were moving, and the drive disconnected from Windows. After that the drive went into RAW mode and cannot be read by Windows. I am sure a format will make the drive work again but I would rather rebuild NTFS somehow.
I did use a different recovery tool on the drive, after going into RAW, and it does look like it recovered all the files I was going after (After 5 days of the deep scan option). However none of those files will open. They are Canon CR2 files. The headers of the files may be corrupted. The EXIF seems to be intact. Is there anything that might fix this?
Did you find a solution?
@@drxzt No. I kept going through an endless loop of the same software under different names.
If it is only the headers that need repaired then there must be something that can do it automatically. I would suspect it is the exact same error in each header.
I have not attempted anything the past few months, as time consuming as it can become I occasionally look for anything new that may work.
