JoeSO88 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Hi. Today we vere cleaning our phone (Samsung A32, Android 11), gave permission to CCleaner. Started default cleaning process. Sadly the CCleaner deleted all photos in our custom directories + all display screenshots. We tried every possible recovery software + Samsung Apps. Recycle bin is empty. Google photos not possible because the amount and size of the photos. Same for google drive backup. As it has been said in some posts before us, it is obviously normal in this software. I immediately uninstalled CCleaner form all my devices (6 PCs, 3 mobile phones) Has anyone tried anything that did actually help? I also suggest to users to be extra careful. And to CCleaner crew, it might be a good idea to implement recovery feature... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators DennisD Posted January 25 Moderators Share Posted January 25 Hi chaps. It's a long time since I made a post on this forum, but I feel so heartily sorry for your predicament, that I thought I'd mention what I think is possibly the only chance you have of getting anything back. And that is do any of you use a Micro SD Card in your phone for expanded storage? None of you have mentioned that in your posts. If you do, take it out, insert it into a USB adapter such as THIS, and into your computer, and with any luck it may still be given a drive letter. Then you can scan it with something like Recuva, or if the file system is really messed up then try PhotoRec. A slightly intimidating program but free and very powerful. They have a help forum HERE, and there's been many posts in the past on here on it's use. The SD Card option is all I've got guys, and I sincerely hope it may be of some help. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeSO88 Posted January 25 Author Share Posted January 25 All photos were stored in internal storage. If we had the SD card, the photos might be possible, to save. I know about Recuva and similar software, which i used on other things as well. I tried every possible way to find the photos, even those which cancel the warranty of the phone to no avail.

angelbaybee84 Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Thank you for this. I will give this a try. I am so upset! All I did was "clean the junk" and now all my photos are gone! My photos are NOT junk! Why did this happen?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators nukecad Posted June 17 Moderators Share Posted June 17 I don't know the Android app at all, but if the photos are stored/synced to your google account then it may just be the link to them that has been lost. ie. they may well still be there at google but just not linked to your phone at the moment, in that case it would just need the links restoring/resyncing. *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Keep getting logged out of websites?

angelbaybee84 Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 They were my photo albums such as screen shots and other albums I transferred photos to such as family vacation 2023, birthdays, etc. I don't understand why this happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
