I stupidly deleted files from my Seagate backup, OneDrive, and computer. How can I get them back? I have tried Recuva but it does not work. The Windows Recovery does not work. Any suggestions particularly any software that really works?
Thanks,

I did it. I was in a hurry and accidentally formatted a 200Gb Micro SD card in my external slot of my Android phone. It had every type of file you can imagine on it. Videos, Pics, PDFs, Word Documents, Rar, Zip & 7z files... and more. About 110Gb of data.
There are so many reviews that are...

Windows Server Backup has been running for a couple of years. I see my current backups. It shows the oldest backup date being back in 2018. However, when I click on "Restore" it only shows dates since January 1. Are those backups just gone? Where are they? Perhaps they just don't show up...
I have a few hyper v servers 2012,2016 that have files encrypted on them from a few minutes over night on Dec 17th and Dec 18th. There was no ransom file and I have found no ransomware and don't believe it has happened since and have already restored the files. These servers are in a...
Hello all,

Hi
This isn't really a request for help, more curiosity.

Only after that did I realize that there was another folder in it that I did need.
I've never used Recuva but I downloaded it and tried to see...

The only thing is I DID lose some files that were within program files.
For example I lost all the...

For some reason, I cannot open my library folders (music, video, documents, pictures). I don't know how it occurred, but I think it may be due to the last round of updates that were downloaded from Microsoft.
When I click on the folders, nothing happens. I get no errors either. This is what...
