2 days ago I downloaded and installed, one of the coolest things I have ever seen, since I've been using computers. It's called Recuva and it retrieves lost files. I'm sure many of you remember how I had lost all my videos, after bringing my computer back to factory settings. Because I had only saved the shortcuts to my flashdrive and not the actual videos.
Well Rercuva gave them back to me. I set it to search for videos throughout the computer. Then I set it on deep scan. It took about 4 hours, but it found them and brought them back. I knew they were still on the harddrive. But I thought it would take more than a free app. to retrieve them.
Now it did bring them back kind of wrong. Meaning not exactly how they were when I lost them. Kind of like "Pet Semitary" by Stephen King. Therre were some that wouldn't play at all. Some that would only play for 15 seconds or less.Doubles, triples quadruples of bad ones that I had to get rid of,and the same things for good ones I just got rid of all the copies but one. I can't say, for sure, that I got all my videos back. But, I know I got the vast majority.
I'm sure some of you PC Wizards are going to tell me all about the flaws and dangers of Recuva.
But I don't care. It has been very good to me. ;0)
