      SINCE, I WANNA FIND THE FILES AGAIN
      FROM 2014
      IT'S SUCH MEMORIES AND I NEED IT
      I LITERALLY FINISHED CARS 2 BEFORE
      SO MANY FILES ON SONIC ADVENTURE
      AND OTHER GAMES

    For those of you that pressed option 3 like in the video and are experiencing "Preparing please wait" for what seems like eternity, do not despair. Press option 5, it will however delete your data and restore factory settings. If you have PS Plus then you should be ok in regards to restoring game saves.

    When I was playing Lego Batman, the system froze during a save. Now my ps3 won't read any discs. I unplugged everything and let the system cool down and it read the disc temporarily, but again won't read anything and makes an eject sound. I tried tilting the system up, down, and sideways and nothing works. Is this a hardware issue?

    It is a good idea before you do anything in the PS3 safe menu to use the Backup Utility in the PS3 System Settings to backup all your data to an external drive. How long this takes depends on how much data there is. My 160GB PS3 Slim at about 70% full takes about 4-5 hours to backup.
    I do a backup like this every 6 months or so.

    • @emylucie

      Omg gotta try it out Resident Evil 5 made me erase it accidentally because i didn't understood the questions
      Edit: Nvm u say u do a backup every 6 months💀

    my game froze the console and I held the button down and got the same file system corrupted restoring but it's taking over 7 hours. I'm worried it's actually reformatting the entire console, because I didn't go through safe mode just followed what it said after turning it back on. Can I interrupt it and definitely go into safe mode to be sure?

First you need to do is-click reset, then it will take you to the home screen, then make an account but click the one under it, the I already have an account. Then just put in your user, and then put in your password, or will it will show email, and password, then ill say "Please confirm your gmail." Well I hope the advice ill work. :)

    Initially my PS3 told me that my system is corrupted and has to be formatted. Although I never wanted to format it, i had no choice but to do so. Can I still recover those files which was deleted when I formatted my PS3? What should I do? Thanks in advance

    I went into safe mode...and when clicking restore file...or any other...it advises me to install software

    Every time I attempt to restore my system files, it loads up to 5% and it takes a long while and after waiting 30 mins it would still be at 5%. I've never waited much longer after 30 mins have passed. Should I wait a few hours or more before I hold the power button to my PS3 to soft reset it?

I've seen ways on RUclips to reset wireless controllers and stuff like that and sync them but nothing about wired how do I get into the system to do this

    Guys the problem is... I do the same thing but when it's restoring it just says preparing and takes a hole lot of time and then switches off and again it doesn't turn on ... so it's s black screen and when I go to safe mode it works... But it doesn't load up the restoring ... Even if it does it gets stuck for 3 days or so and switches off again...
