I am trying to recover some deleted photos. I ran Recouva and it found thousands of files. I selected many .jpg files that were not in the temporary internet file, After recovering these files almost all cannot be opened. Most of what is open is junk. I have not found the photos I am looking for. What am I doing wrong?
What device are you recovering from?
Did you run a normal or deep scan?
How were the photos deleted?
Thank you for your response. The photos were sent to the trash and then deleted. I am attempting to recover from the C drive and sendthem to an external hard drive. I don't believe I did a deep scan. Would they likely show up after a deep scan? Using the regular scan I got thousands of files. About 90% of these had no preview available. Even though I was able to save some of these, they could not be opened. Thank you for any suggestions.
