FREE File Recovery From MICROSOFT Windows File Recovery Tool!
Don't pay silly amounts of money to recover files from HDD, SSD USB sticks, Memory cards etc. You can do it for NOTHING! And you don't have to worry about the program being from some sketchy company that will harvest your data or create a back door and run up a credit card bill.
The Microsoft Windows File Recovery is COMPLETELEY FREE and can do pretty much everything the paid for programs can do, but without the nice fancy user interface so be prepared to see the command line! And don't worry it is pretty simple although still pretty much a work in progress all the features are there.
This small program found over 40,000 files on my USB flash drive that only really had a BIOS ROM on it!
There were video files that played as they should and PDF's that had long be deleted! This is one of the few times i have tried a file recovery program and the items found would actually open and were in the same format etc!
Obviously your mileage may vary, but here is a challenge for you. Get and old memory stick and see what you can find!

@skystalker7700 4 года назад

Wow, Mike... talk about finding a hidden gem! That is AWESOME! Reminds me of my MS-DOS days back in the 80's. I am surprised to see how well it works. I am a bit disappointed that Microsoft could not at least put a simple GUI on it - it may be intimidating for some people. But, as you stated, it is free, so not much to complain about. Just a caution to people out there - if your media is damaged, your mileage will vary but it is worth the try!

@mikesunboxing 4 года назад

Thanks sky yes was nice to have a command line rather than a gui those then to me more confusing at times. At least with the command line you are telling it exactly what to do

@coltcalderock3278 3 года назад

I've figured why the recovery folder doesn't show up on the File Explorer. Apparently, that folder is treated as a 'protected operating system' file and those are by default hidden in the File Explorer as it is recommened. To view the folder, simply go to File Explorer, click on the 'File' button in the upper left corner, select 'Change folder and search options' or sometimes simply 'Options', go to 'View' tab, scroll down in the 'Advanced settings' block and uncheck the 'Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)'. Click 'Apply' and 'OK', refresh the page if needed and now you'll probably be able to see it. I had to do it two times in some cases, as the first time didn't apply the setting for me, but it did the second time. Hope it helps!

@hollywoodmints 4 года назад

Hi Oletta, I noticed you said you went to IT school. I just started 2 days ago on Thursday the 18th. I just wanted to ask how was it, and was the test very difficult , and how long did you go to school? Our course is usually done in 6 months, but we're having to do it in 3, which means twice the studying lol. Also if possible, can you please add me...I'd like to reach out from time to time for assistance, if you don't mind.

@OlettaLiano 4 года назад

@@hollywoodmints For me, it was expensive and not worth the money I paid. If I could do it over, I would have just bought the school's books, and studied at home. Then when I was ready, I would pay the $200 or so for taking each of the CompTIA and MCP certification tests. That would have been much less costly, and I would have gotten citified faster. I never actually used the associate degree I got from the 2 year IT course. So that was a waste of money. Hopefully the school you're attending is much better and the experience will be better for you.

@hollywoodmints 4 года назад

A non-techie, continuing subscriber. Another great view. I have 2 HDDs in an external dock that have suddenly changed to RAW format. I've been researching on how I might recover and reformat. The concensus seems to be a program like this one...recovery, then reformat, then reload files back to the problem disk. Do you think this program would be a good attempt by an unskilled user? I've also seen programs from EaseUSA, MiniTool, Aomei, 4DDiG, and Disc Drill mentioned What is your advice?

@mikesunboxing 2 года назад

you might be able to repair the master boot record and file structure table before that, i'll try and find a link to the info, but if you want to have a look just google "drive set to raw repair

@weybrew 2 года назад

@@mikesunboxing Thanks Mike, but I'm not techie enough to understand master boot record...I did the Google search but the results showed only ads for recovery programs I had already listed with the addition of iBoysoft. I did read a comment cautioning using chkdsk X: /f which I read that I should do (!). So, now what is your best guess for me? If a 3rd party program, which one?

@MrJoosebawkz 3 года назад

awesome to see you are monitering this video as of today. I have a problem where I deleted A bunch of work but I dont have a flash drive or second hard drive in my home. am i screwed? Like from what I can read you need to find the files in one drive and copy them into a second. but I only have the one c drive on my harddrive and thats it.

@mikesunboxing 3 года назад

it might be best to bite the bullet and buy a USB drive if you can, otherwise if you have enough space free on the main drive you could create a new partition and maybe recover to there? Also you could try recuva that is a slightly easier app to use

@joygal7743 6 месяцев назад

I wanted to ask this but thanks for asking nd for answering

@LordDragonMPF 3 года назад

Is it possible in this application that the program, when recovering and moving files, can place files as they were in the source device? The point is that as there are e.g. 3 folders with games. Each folder has its own subfolders, e.g. ambient, txt. The point is that files from 3 different folders will not end up in 1 shared folder, otherwise it will end up mixing files and possibly overwriting them.

@mikesunboxing 3 года назад

it might be possible but as this is a work in progress it might be best to ask the software devs for specifics

How long does this process usually take. I'm not sure if this works on internal SSD's anyway, but it seems to be stuck on 19% on a 1TB ssd. Is this just a result of the huge scan size, or is there something wrong with the program?

trouble is you now have files on your c drive that you didn't want to save there in the 1st place... that's why you bought a card or external source.. some people have sensitive data/files they don't want on their c drive.. it is a pain that the files can't be reviewed before recovering to another storage source..

@sme4969 3 года назад

@@mikesunboxing.. it would be better if the microsoft recovery let you review before you recovered all the deleted files so you could go through and only recover what you wanted to save then format the card.. recoverit recovery free download lets you review files up to 30mb and recover them free , but any bigger you can't review to see if you want to recover which is no good if the files you are looking for is larger, so i presume you have to pay for that service.. i had a card that had files i had saved. it played fine then all of a sudden it came came up card needs formatting, so i run recover it the files was in raw which i had saved as jpg it was a back storage from my phone.. where i changed cards to it being small card storage.. .

HELP :( 1. I tried to transfer folders from sd card of my phone to laptop by "Cut" then "Paste". When i opened the folders, pictures are ok but video files are gone. 2. I tried to transfer the same folder back to the sd card, video files are still missing. 3. I watched and tried many file recovery videos and there was one video that suggests that you should try quick formatting on the sd card. Now, theyre all gone T.T 4. I tried again different file recovery videos , and windows file recovery. nothing worked :( . Can i still retrieve even just the video files?

@GroundedRoots 2 года назад

Great video. I'm stumped though. After I press y to continue, it says Pass 1: Scanning and processing disk Scanning disk: 00% C:\Windows\system32> After that shows up it creates a folder in my selected destination, but the scan percent never goes above 00%

@nokedlipudinggal8276 3 года назад

Ok this is all good and dandy but what if you truly accidentally deleted a file and you don't even know what you deleted and where. Is there a way to browse recently deleted files?

@mikesunboxing 3 года назад

not that i am aware of, but that would be a good app, although i guess security concerns might be an issue

@ridjam 3 года назад

I've tried, but there's always a message "This tool must be run as administrator", and I've tried right click -> run as administrator but still can't.

@mikesunboxing 3 года назад

sorry not sure what is going on there? maybe give MS support a shout out

@ronaldddoooo 2 года назад

don't run it as admin from the context menu. just click it directly.

@cpkphil 2 года назад

I can't seem to open the app?? I click on "GET" but nothing happens. Any ideas?? Thanx

@mikesunboxing 2 года назад

use the free recuva software, we did a video on it recently, much easier to use and navigate

Help please i have accidentally wiped my 1TB external hard drive and i would like to recover most of the files how can i go about recuperating those files knowing that i have an internal ssd of only 240 gigs ?

@mikesunboxing 2 года назад

that is going to be a problem unless you restrict the file types. Otherwise you will need a larger drive to recover to

@angelofjustice5081 2 года назад

@@mikesunboxing Well thanks anyway, i decided to take it to a company that will have the means to recover all my documents. It will cost me 67 dolars LoL !
