How To Recover Lost File From any Device and Ensure Data Sefaty

In this post, am going to be showing you two ways you can recover your lost files from your device be it from your computer or flash disk.

When you save image to your computer, it automatically move to the [c:] folder which is the hard disk of your computer.

C: This is the location of the hard disc drive of a computer
         D: E: F: G: or H
Any of the above  letters apart from C: is the location of the external storage device plugged  to   the computer

Note: When I mean computer here, am referring to both the mobile phones because they are computer but are made of mobile capacity.

Just as I said in the  opening paragraph, The first way that you can recover lost files that I will be taking you through is: 

                                                       Manual File Recovery Process
This method requires you to do the recovery process manually by running some code to your system. Now follow these simple method to recover your files:

  1.  Connect the drive you want to recover into a functional computer.
  2.  Go to my computer and see the connected disks you will see a name anchored with D: E: F: G: H: be sure you locate the one you want to recover file(s) from.  

External Storage Device 

Go to the Start button locate run

Run

Type Chkdsk d:/r into the box and hit OK.
The instruction you have passed on to the computer is to Check external disk d: and repair it.
what you will notice as soon as you hit the OK button is that the computer will begin the check operation as though you are trying to interpret a java code manually. The pic below is an example of what you will see.

If check the image above, you will notice that I didn't specify the drive that was because I don't have any file that I want to lookout for.

When it has finished the operation, specify the directory you want the files to be saved and you are Done...

The second method which you can use to achieve the same result is by the use of software. several software like Easy Us,CDRoller,Data LifeSaver (now "EASIS Data Recovery"), Disk Drill Basic ,dvdisaster ,FileSalvage ,Foremost ,GetDataBack, IsoBuster,Norton Utilities,PhotoRec,Recuva,Recover My Files,TestDisk,TotalRecovery and whole lots of other programs that can do the same thing.

Out of the above mentioned, I will show you How one of the work.
                                                   
                               RECUVA

Is a freeware data recovery program, developed by Piriform, and runs under Microsoft Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2003, and 2000.It is able to recover files that have been "permanently" deleted and marked by the operating system as free space. The program can also be used to recover files deleted from USB flash drives, memory cards, or MP3 players.wikipedia
  I have personally used this program and find it worth sharing with you and am sure that you will enjoy using this program too.
Download Recuva here and install it before you continue with the tutorial.
Now locate it from the desktop and double click on it
When it has finished loading, specify the file type that you want to recover

Specify
 Hit on the Next button and follow the rest of the instructions to recover file.
Now that you have your your file back, ensure that you back them up either online or offline to avoid the headache.
