[cant open recovered files]

Recuva does not change the file type or compress/backup them when it recovers them

so if it only found .bkf files then that's all that recoverable, they are normally in the same place they were deleted from.

 

Have you tried the "deep scan" option?

Hi!

I just wonder if its possibly a backup file created by some other backup program, and only opens in the same program?

Are backup files encrypted or readable in various programs?

Anyway, it sounds like you only "found" them, not lost them. In that case, why bother???

Recovering takes a lot of time, you must be darn curious using that much time on files you didnt loose....

[Device is not ready error]

Hi, I've got the same message/problem, found all my files it seems - just wont get them up!

Would be nice if someone could answer this soon! I'm a bit nervous couse i thought I'd lost all my files,

and have I???

 

Hi again, I guess you might have solved the problem allready but anyway:

 

I just restarted the pc , the program, and yes it does take som time but after the restart and a new search all seems to work out well!!!

I'm at work now, but my pc is at home doing the job for me I've already checked some of the jpg?s and they are all right!

If all worked out well by tomorrow morning, I will seariously consider a donation for this great program!

 

I should add that I bought another e usb hard drive to restore the files to, as it was promted by the program.

Thanks for now

[Device is not ready error]

I am trying to recover some pics off an old laptop hard drive that crashed and was reformatted. I performed a deep scan using Recuva and a hard drive adaptor and it found the pictures. When I check the pictures I want to recover and hit recover, it cycles through and states that 0 files were recovered as "the device is not ready". Any help or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks
