In case anyone is wondering, it will cost you $80 if you want to actually recover anything. The VLC methods he lists just flat out doesn't actually work, ever, for anyone. And you can scan for the files with their software, but you can't do anything with them without paying.
Im not sure if this Software is supposed to be more geared towards professionals but having 3 options for that insane amount of Money is unbeleivable.
It’ll cost you 80 bucks and it’s not even guaranteed to work. IT’S A SCAM. Didn’t work for me.
underated comment
@@sternwardboss Do they give you get a refund with their '7-day money back guarantee'?
@@amygianvideography Nope
did I miss the part where you showed the files in your demo were actually damaged? I mean, if thumbnails are showing up in explorer, how broken can they be?
Facts.
Damn i miss the Time when there was free Software around. I downloaded the Software and tried to repair my video but could only watch a Preview and not save the Video without paying for it which is something that wasn´t mentioned but i was not surprised. It´s good that i could see the preview because it showed me that it doesnt work anyway.
Damn this is stressing and time consuming af... Trying so many methods to see whether it works or not
Is there a way to recover corrupted file on the iPhone

OMG!!! Thank you sooooo much! During a shoot, I inadvertently formatted my micro SD card with 16 irreplaceable video files on it. I've spent 2 full days trying to recover them. I was able to get the files off the memory card but all the codec information was stripped out so they couldn't be played or viewed. Upon your suggestion in this video, tried your Wondershare Video Repair software. Before I bought it, I was able to see that it repaired one of my files and the video was back! I had no hesitation in purchasing a one month license for under $30 to get all the data back! The marvelous thing is that with only two mouse clicks, I had all the footage (16 files - 18+ GB) back in less than 10-minutes! I almost never write testimonials or reviews but this is genuine joy you read in this comment. This is a life saver!

thank you so much, this tutorial helped me fix a video I thought could never be recovered, super helpful!

@@RecoveritDataRecoverySoftware will it be able to repair the corrupted videos i downloaded from youtube and other websites? Please respond.
Which method worked for you?
@@RecoveritDataRecoverySoftware no
@@RecoveritDataRecoverySoftwaremichael, I have such a problem with a damaged video, but after restoring it, it was damaged, the duration and bitrate of the video disappeared. how to restore nothing is very urgent!!! translate and help me fix it😢😢😢
Thank you so much for this video - I had deleted footage by accident off of my SD card BUT was able to recover some of the footage with a tool called Disk Drill - however, the mp4 files didn't play on anything, VLC, M player, etc. Your tool DID work and played my videos after the advance scan!! I was so relieved! But when I saw all of the previews I was so disappointed, the recovered files were all of the wrong videos, meaning that the recovered video files were not the ones I wanted. Meaning that those videos I wanted are gone forever. Ah well. Only wanted to leave a comment for those wondering if this tool works: yes it absolutely does! Thank you guys for making such a wonder of a tool! I will certainly keep it and upgrade if I ever need it again in the future! :)
did you find anything that recovered them?
@@achampton9720 No, those files unfortunately were completely lost from the SD card :(
@@Mr_Jonno hey i moved my folders or video folders from my internal storage to my sd card but for some reason my videos convert to jpg and they are not videos no more its weird did that happen to you?
@@mr.underground13 no that’s not what I experienced - that’s really strange though! I’d contact their support to see if they can help you further
did you have to pay for it
VLC didn't work but Wondershare worked. Thanks.
When the data is lost, give us a call. We've got your back! Been in this game since 2003 and can recover pretty much anything
Help
Because you need to choose mkv format for recording, not mp4. Mp4 is for screen recoding on desktops, preferrably with UPS, but not for handheld battery powered devices. You can convert to MP4 later, but the original recording is to be done in MKV.
Man, i need to ask you a question if you are kind enough to answer me ...i have a mp4 file , i still hear the sound of the video but the image is gone, is there anything i can do to recover the acutall footage?
@@tiagomota4734 I would help you if I knew how. Sorry I don't know. If I were you I would first try to copy the flash memory sector by sector with file (data) recovery software to another disk, then on that disk try to restore the file. Then try a few video players ensuring that all necessary codecs installed, then try some video repair software packages to work with the file, then try opening the file in various modern video editors, try extracting the video track, maybe then try some video format converting software to covert to another format and try to play it, and see if anything works. But if the video track has all zeros, I don't think anything can be done. If this is very important you can consult and send your flash memory to a professional data recovery company, but that would cost money.
Wanted to recover one 3 minute corrupted video, which it did but I have to buy the top package for £118.97 for the year which is too expensive so I didn't go ahead with it. You should have an option for customers who want to recover just one file/video. I bet you will gain more sales this way.
Shall thy be blessed. Im sleepy but had too much caffeine so this is me showing love for this video while sounding extra strange
I can't recover my a to z app videos 😢there is my mom memory
Hey! I have recovered deleted video files. Now these are not playing. How can I fix them?
Also me the same problems
same problem
Whoah, the VLC trick worked! Thank you!! (It was a Twitch Stream that I downloaded. At one point something was wrong. Video editing programs would crash when exporting it, and the video wouldn't play past a certain point)
How long did it take to convert? how long was the streaming ? how big was the size of the file ?
@@donlucazz a big file, maybe 20gb. 720p. Not sure the length. The time was short, like 5 minutes or so. I didn’t take notes so I’m not completely sure
still does not works for me. video length is showing 00:00 but it is 1.12 GB in size
Ahhhh!!!!!!! The wondershare program worked!!!! My file needed the advanced repair and it’s the only thing I’ve found that worked! Thank you so much!!!!!
Cost money don’t bother
Thanks a million for the solutions. The first way already worked! Cheers!

this is so heplful thank you !
You're so welcome!!!
I just bought your software and it successfully recovered a video file none of the free softwares could. Thanks a lot!
Wondershare worked for me with advanced repair, thank you. The footage was a bit jittery but it was all there unlike other solutions; which none other worked.
VLC did not work at all for my situation.
Kernel Video Repair which was not able to restore the audio only very jittery video. Tried to get help from tech no help, they disconnected from chat.
Easeus video repair tool kept scanning everything beyond the file I needed repaired; don't even bother.
Wondershare should allow the file to be downloaded rather than a small file that allows downloading. I always like to have backups for quick reinstall if ever required.
if you dont want the camera waving it starts 2:50
great vid, informative. my issue was i just need to convert/save my video file, but i was using a different video player, VLC worked perfect however.
saved me from spending another 3 hours re-recording footage.
I have done exact same process in the repairit ..But the repair video has many glitches ..How clean i fix that
How about the video can be opened but it just shows randlm rainbow colors, like the "error" in TV's. How do you fix that?
You guys love to collude with other video recovery softwares, don't you?
WHY DOES IT COST SO MUCH, I JUST WANT TO REVOVER 1 VIDEO!
This is working for me - Open Adobe Media Encoder, in the media browser, find the files you're having trouble downloading from your DVD. Right click them and the select "Add Item to Queue". Now it will show a loading bar as it gradually loads the video file from the DVD into the app. (It might take a while for it to finish loading.) After it finishes loading, it will show a blue bar underneath the icon of that video file in the media browser, click & drag that video clip from the media browser into the folder you want to download it to. Hope that works for ya. I think Adobe Media Encoder ignores the errors and also seems to take its time loading up the files and then when you drag and drop it, it's already loaded into the app so it copies it quickly and correctly.

hello, the file that need to repair is in dat format, but your repair tool won't reconazed it
is there ever gonna be a free trial for recoverit? i dont have $70 to use on a program im only gonna use once

What should I do ?
yea the software works but its $40 to use the repair
I've spent €172 for this software. Not even once did it manage to repair a single mp4.
i figured out how to just get the files for free and it worked great

I purchased the recover it app and try to recover my deleted GoPro videos but it's not working the videos says the quick player Can't perform playing the file. I don't know what's going on and I paid a lot of money for the app but still didn't fix my problem. And not to mention the videos that was deleted was just few hours ago but why I can't play their recovered video using the recoverIT app.
Hey. U got it solved?
All methods still haven't worked is there anything else to recover the clips? When I open my memory card there is two clips out of the 24 that still work then the others have the QuickTime logo. Ive tried so many options including everything you just explained. Thanks
The first repair suggestion did not fix my file. Renaming my file to ".avi" does not change the file type on my system. I'm on Windows 10. Any other suggestions to change file type?
(Update:) NEVERMIND!!! IT'S PAYWALLED AND AFTER WAITING HALF AN HOUR FOR IT TO FINISH, IT DIDNT SAVE THE AUDIO. :T
The website helped me, actually the 30 min long advanced repair is what saved my video. Thank you :3
The video is almost fine, the problem is that my pc blue screened when i was recording and now when the video gets to the time i got the blue screen it makes the pc crash again and bluescreens me again
none of this worked for me, unfortunately i spent money on the repair it software and it still did not work after trying the advanced repair and even adding a sample video.
Bravo! Thank you for this. So I installed the program you specified to get in the video. I just used VLC Media Player to fix my issue with a video clip. The first step worked! Thank you once again for this tutorial! I gave it a like also.

I tried the online repair, it said successful but when I download it it's just black. Same with the trial version, I'm seeing the thumbnail but preview needs advance purchase.
Videos like this is why RUclips shouldn't have gotten rid of the dislike button
The Dislike Thumb is there for all the videos I watch.
This really helps me in my homeworks.....

What if ,in mobile phone.. save in SD card my video and photo has been corrupted . How to repair?
Great thanx. VLC fixed my corrupted video file. Celluloid was saying: unrecognized file format. Not it's OK.
GoPro makes videos corrupt if the battery runs out. So I tried this free program to save those videos, but not working. 😢
My new problem is, I got a new computer (Windows 10 and I've had Windows 7 for years, no problem). I import video from my samsung phone so that I can add subtitles. Then the new computer creates it as mp4. I send it back to my phone so I can upload to FB and/or YT and it will not upload. In fact, my FB app will close out and the phone will go to the home screen.
And what has always taken 10 minutes or less to upload to RUclips, now takes hours (7 or more)
i tried to convert a mkv file to a mp4 and it was corrupted and none of this worked
Very helpful, THANKS!!!!!!
You're welcome!
It appears you have missed a method: while following your second method, it was the act of copying them from one location to another that made them playable - I'm using Windows 10 - quite strange that this fixed them
HI i am a school student and 3 recordings of my online classes has been corrupted. please help me to recover the file. i don't have money to buy the software for uncorrupting the file. please suggest any other alternative.

Hi i just wanna ask how to recover a video that was corrupted. I was transfering the video that has a 2gb file size from phone to otg/flashdrive then the otg was accidentally unplugged. The problem is the file itself was transfered to the flashdrive but has a zero file size? What should i do? Thanks

So, I got the Wondershare, and I got confused since you didn't tell us what to pick, the "Video repair" or the "Advanced Video Recovery" (Unless I didn't hear, stupid me) so I randomly and STUPIDLY picked "Advanced Video Recovery" and realized I picked THE WRONG ONE, now I exited out of "Advanced Video Recovery" and it said for me to wait patiently, it's been a day and it's still there, I really wanna fix my video, I'm desperate, what do I do? (I tried exiting out of it and pulling it open again but it still said it was still running and I couldn't do that)
Just force close the program using Task Manager. If the issue persists, please reach our team here: recoverit.wondershare.com/support/
only 80% of it got recovered, well this much was already got recovered from online tools!
is there no other way to recover that 20%?
Bro i was recoding with obs and my pc get off and the video don't playing

it didn't supported for me, i need to repair the following file format mp4.tmp0 its from a cell phone camera, the files usually get named with a date and that's it, but i got one that didn't saved correctly and after the date there's mp4.tmp0. size 589MB
may i help?
VLC doesn't give me the convert to AVI option anywhere.
Hi Nate, please upgrade to the latest version of VLC player.
Only hit Convert. On the new version don't hit convert/save like he recommends. That is the only way i could get it to save to an AVI file.
So, i have the problem that i used OBS recording software to record af conversation on mu desktop, at the compression was to MP4, they warned in the app, that if there would be some kind of issue with my PC, that would interrupt the recording, the MP4 file would become corrupted. I am now trying to fix the file, because it wont play. I have tried everything, VLC Player, Kernel Video Repair, Yodot MOV repair, and soon Wondershare Video Repair, but nothing seems to be working, that this clip is REALLY important to get fixed, so do you eventually know any other steps i can do to fix it? Because nothing seems to be working. Sincerely, Patrick.
I'm having the exact same issue at the moment, did you ever find a fix for it?
@@joeytv7466 No, i am thinking it's a problem with the coding in the video file that hasn't been finished properly, and i haven't found a way to fix it sadly.
do we actually have to pay to recover it
yeah....
I moved my videos from internal storage to sd card and when i played it, the videos had broken pixels
Hello my man, I would like have a question. Does it matter if the length or size is different?
has anyone had any problems with converting mp4.pfl? not sure what PFL is but my files have to changed since editing them.
I recover my deleted video file with easeus data recovery and my file got .avi extension, have tried all of this and still doesn't work, any advice please?
We are desame issue sir
Can you please help me my pc is currupted and i cant even factory reset or i cant even remove the administration for other random stuff please help me i dont want it to be a waste of money
and wht if even the advanced version doesnt fix it?
Omg, it worked. I right clicked the Saved Project that Wondershare said was broken, opened with VLC, did as he said, then when I pressed play with VLC, it didn't work. When I right clicked again and pressed open with Wondershare it opened. This is awesome. Most videos advice never works for me. Glad this did. I am so happy. Thanks so much.

Your software didnt work for my video that failed due to battery losing power. I get a 100mb version of a 4 gb file, and all the upper pixels are stretched. Any tips? I used the advanced and used a sample.
A few months ago my video files, regardless of whether they were saved to my laptop, or still on an external hard drive, or saved from my channel onto my installed "4k VIDEO DOWNLOADER" software, they are all playing off color and as if the zoom setting was as close as it could get. Earlier today I DID try the technique you suggested on VLC but it did not work. The one thing that I DID learn since this problem arose a while back is that when I pull up a video through VLC, it plays perfectly; the only issue is that I don't see a method in which I can transfer my clips from VLC to my editing software in order to create a YT video. I have yet to find any tutorials from someone who mention this type of issue. I am using WINDOWS 8.1 for now and am assuming that it is the media player but I am not certain. Regardless of the fact that I need to upgrade soon, I still need to find a remedy for this problem. I am hoping maybe you or any of the viewers can shed light on this for me. Thanks
Guys this whole thing is a scam - all those programs are the same. If you find yourself in a situation like your camera went out of power or some other way and your video file became corrupted there`s absolutely no way those programs you download or you upload your video to can repair your video. All those programs do is to mess with you - they `try` to repair your file - it`s not working - then they ask you for a copy of a file which resembles your initial file but not corrupted. The only thing they do is creating a preview version on the basis of the uncorrupted file which isn`t even watchable - and they hope that you are dumb enough to buy the full subscription. It`s a trick - a fake. Resign or seek a professional service NOT on the internet of course.
Peace and RIP for your file.
TYSM!!!! I was close to destroying my external hard drive
Hi there! I have a video from a camera that lost power while recording, so the camera has the video saved as a .tmp. I tried renaming the file type from .tmp to .mp4 but it didn't work so something is wrong with the file. Any help with this would be great, thanks!
Hi Cooper Proulx, have you tried to play the tmp. video file? Is it possible to play? If not, the video might be corrupted. You can try to repair the video file and preview it after repaired with the help of Wondershare video repair software.
Don't buy it, this is a bullshit video only made to sell their software after wasting your time.
Even the advanced video repair couldnt fix my video
is there a windows 32-bit verson ? because it says the 64-bit verson i can’t download

The shit he mentioned at the start didn't work, and I was skeptical about Recoverit, but it recovered my file and it was really easy. Cost $83 but I have a license for a year if this shit happens again
Is it possible to repair the video plus it's audio?, this is after recovering footage from a formatted SD card and the video files(mov.) aren't playing and after repairing it with wondershare, the videos are repaired without their audio, so is their a way to recover/repair both the video and it's audio?
Hi! I had problems with my video that I just recorded.. I was recording a video length about 6 minutes then my phone became stuck and lag then it shut down.. When I open it again to view in my gallery, it's still there but can't open.. It says that the file format is not supported.. How can I recover that video? It is important as it's an assignment video :')
I have videos that play audio but aren't showing the video, they used to show and now they don't. Would this video help with my situation or no?
Will it work on videos i downloaded from youtube and other websites? I already tried other softwares but they didn't help at all.
didn't work for me. used advanced added sample file and it "fixed" fast and file still dead. The camera when it actually died of bat said attempting to recover and a fail message saying corruptions so I think its broke... all i have when I test the file is loud static and fuzzy images
FAIR WARNING TO ALL..! install this but you can't use it. all they want is your money.
Alot of good this wondershare will do when you can even recover with out buying first.
My repair is stuckk at 99% for hours. Any tip? I've tried several times
