This means that while using PhotoRec, you must not choose to write the recovered files to the same partition they were stored on. Important: As soon as a picture or file is accidentally deleted, or you discover any missing, do NOT save any more pictures or files to that memory device or hard disk drive otherwise you may overwrite your lost data. You can download them from this link.įor more safety, PhotoRec uses read-only access to handle the drive or memory card you are about to recover lost data from.
PhotoRec is a companion program to TestDisk, an application for recovering lost partitions on a wide variety of file systems and making non-bootable disks bootable again. PhotoRec is free - this open source multi-platform application is distributed under GNU General Public License (GPLV v2+).
