    Disk Drill did not work for me. it scans and finds tons of data but not the lost ones. It brings up all my current file/data.

    Thank you Andrew for your useful explanation.
    The problem i face is that my MacBook Air SSD stopped working out of the blue. It gives me the dreaded folder with a question mark in it. First aid says that there is nothing wrong. It seems that it's reading only the drive partition that has something to do with recovery. I'm told that the machine recognizes the drive, but not the partition where my data is. Do you think that disk drill would work for me?

      Please, run Disk Drill in Recovery mode: www.cleverfiles.com/help/disk-drill-recovery-mode.html and scan your drive to check.

    I used to think that I need to pay for icloud or have a huge amount of SD cards with backups, or do like my dad and have 10 GB of copies. Now I think: for what? I don't want to spend resources on all this if the guy from youtube offers free working options.
    As a person who spent a lot of time finding ways to restore my data I want to say: this guy resurrected my mac. Moreover, he did it free..
    Saving photos in the cloud is good but let's take a little more responsibility for your files. I feel much more confident after I restored everything on my own. I'm sure that guy feels the same

      Hi there! The only way to verify your files recoverability is to download Disk Drill Basic, run the scan, and preview the file(s) in question. If you managed to preview the file you needed to recover in a basic version, then you will need Pro to recover your files. Please email us at help@cleverfiles.com for further assistance. No preview just means that the file might be damaged or corrupt, it can be recovered, but it might need to be repaired.

    Came across your video while trying desperately to find a way to save my thousands of videos in Storage before reinstalling MacOS. My case is: somehow my Mac pro won’t let me pass the login screen, once I put in password it will show a loading bar that only goes up to 80-90% and bounces back to login again. There’s nothing I can do but to reinstall Catalina (tried to upgrade to Big Sur so it won’t erase my data but it won’t let me either, kept saying reinstall Catalina 🤦🏻‍♀️). Before I go ahead and install OS I just want to verify if Disk drill will be able to recover my folder contains a thousand videos and a few hundred photos? Thank you so much for your help I really feel like crying now 😭 Losing all of those work will definitely throw me in depression big time 😞

Do I have to wait for the whole scanning process or can I select the folders before its completed (since its not finding any new files after 6hrs of scanning) And recover the folders that are available ?

    can we recover overwritten SD card ??

    • @cleverfiles
      @cleverfiles  3 года назад

      Hi, My apologies on the matter. We strongly suggest that once you delete the files by accident or by any other way, to stop using the media or device immediately to avoid data corruption.
      In the case of an SD Card compared to a Hard drive, the SD card has less space than a Hard Drive; if you deleted files and then continue to take pictures, you are narrowing the possibilities of recovering those deleted pictures.
      Imagine your SD Card is a road, this road has pavement, each section of pavement is a File or picture. So when you delete a file, what your SD Card does is that it tells your OS that the section, where your files were, is now "empty", even though it is not. So the section of the road still has pavement on it. When your OS wants to save a file, it will see the "empty" space and use it to save the file. And instead of removing the file, it will be written over the "empty" space of your file. In the road metaphor, your OS will be putting new pavement on top of the old one.

She closed the laptop to go to sleep and the next morning Diskdrill didn't show anything when she lifted the lid to see the screen. She didn't close the app or shut the computer down, just closed the lid and opened it the next day. Now when she clicks the drive to recover, nothing comes up. Your thoughts??

    Hi! Can you find the files with the original names and rutes?

    • @cleverfiles
      @cleverfiles  2 месяца назад

      File names and folder structure are very intricate metadata that sometimes cannot be recovered. You can increase the recovery chances by running the scan on the whole drive by clicking Search for lost data on the whole drive (not just volume or partition) without interruptions, locating the files in question, and previewing them to verify the content. Disk Drill PRO will recover files that can be accurately previewed in Disk Drill Basic. If you only perform a Deep Scan, the metadata will be lost.

      A 0KB file usually indicates it's empty or corrupted. Try opening it with a text or hex editor to check for hidden data. If that fails, restore the file from a backup or use recovery software like Disk Drill. Running chkdsk may fix disk errors, and checking for temporary files might help recover the lost data.

    Hi.
    Sorry this isn't the right place for my query; please forgive.
    I have a Windows computer, and attached to it was a Flash Drive that had a folder in it that I thought was small and meaningless; so, I deleted it and learned immediately afterwards that I had made a mistake.
    I tried the little chkdsk G: /f & ATTRIB ..... things and got nothing. I also looked in history of my drive, but that was never activated. I also tried an old version of RecoveryPro or whatever from San Disk- nothing.
    To your knowledge, is there anything I can buy and have SHIPPED to me as a decent physical tool to use to recover the files that I deleted? The thing is I DON'T want to be online and exposed while I am trying to recover stuff, so I'd rather pay $50 or something for a cd I can use, if possible.
    Thanks and GOD Bless,
    Paul
