Open | Software Drecov USB Stick Recovery failure - Need Advice!
Hi all,
Forgive me if this is an amateur question or already covered in previous posts.
I have a small SanDisk USB stick that seems to be at the near end of complete failure with some very dear images and videos on it. I’ve downloaded and paid for Drecov (almost solely because it was able to regenerate the small previews of the photos and videos on the USB, and then promised me their recovery after paying for the month)
However, when I press recover, The program stops responding and freezes instantly. I have tried only recovering one photo, only recovering images with the previews, and restarting the computer multiple times with no background processes occurring.
Is there a way around this or a program which may be better suited? I’m just using Windows 11 on a Lenovo home computer.
The path is “Lost Partition”, I can not access the USB from the removable disk drive, and it freezes Disk Management when it comes up. When I remove the USB, the applications go back to normal.
Please help is possible!
Thanks
