I got a stupid story of my own
2 days ago, I went out for a few photo in snow and later rain for like 8 hours. I came back with handful of keeper which makes me really happy.
Back at the warm and comfortable room, I try to transfer files from SD card to a computer. Make a cup of coffee, enjoy cookies while wait for the transferring
and.. I somehow select all folders in SD card then hit delete BEFORE it finishes transferring the files!
The system asks if I am sure I want to delete? I am again hit “Yes”! then go back to enjoy my coffee.
Notice it later when the computer said it cannot transfer the selected files because it doesn’t exist!!!
I has never done that, I always format it in camera after everything is done and usually several days or a week later.
At first, I loosed almost half of my photo from that day. Trying to use recovery tools to take back some of them, some corrupted beyond recovery. After all, I lose almost 1/3 of the images. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [do not try multitracks after a long day of shooting!]
Anyway, I you want to try recovery deleted file, these 2 might come to handy.
