I have now closed the app and restarted the 10 hour scan. It has now found and ignored the original 14,000+ files. If I then put a picture filter on it just knocks the 90 files found down to 89, so this does not seem to be helping. I need it to recognise the 14,000 files that it is ignoring? Note I have also tried to apply each of the other filters and only the movie filter found the 1 file from the original 90. Julie

Ok, I reran the scan with no filter, has found less files but is still ignoring just under 11,000. If you add Picture to the filter it makes no difference (and I'm not sure why that would suddenly make the system change them from ignored). Not sure if I am missing something obvious here or the system is just not capable of recovering files that it has identified. Julie

Hi The drive was formatted using an Andriod tablet and it now reports that only 4mb of space has been used, so I am assuming by Live files you mean files that have not been deleted. As it only reports use of 4mb (and all the files were Pictures), I am assuming they would not be classed as Live files? I am re-running the scan with no filters, after the 10 hour scan is complete, are you staying to just change the filename or path box to Picture and then click the scan button again? Regards Julie

Hi, I have run the free version of Recuva and whilst I was optimistic as it ran and was finding lots of files, when it completed after 10 hours it states it only found 90 files and ignored 14,000 others. I have tried running with a filter to just look for picture files (which is what the drive contains) but same result and I have cleared all filters and still find there are 14,000 files ignored. Is there anything else I can try?
