So I accidentally deleted a folder and decided to recover it, which I could... but for some reason all the files were garbage even though they were all labelled as in excellent condition. Sadly I thought it would work as it has done in the past and decided to not even check to see if the files were fine and have already overwritten the originals.
You have no idea how hard it is for me to type this without profanity.
After writing the first section I decided to try it out on all my drives and to try and recover random files to see if they are fine, no. Not one file can be recovered properly.
