raw

About this tag
On WindowsForum.com, the tag 'raw' primarily refers to two distinct topics: RAW image file formats and RAW file system errors. For photographers, discussions cover issues with Windows Photos processing RAW images slowly or altering colors, as well as problems with Windows not recognizing .RAW and .jpg files. The Microsoft Camera Codec Pack is mentioned as a solution for viewing RAW camera files in Windows 7 and Vista. Separately, 'raw' describes a file system state where a drive appears as RAW instead of NTFS or ReFS, often due to corruption, accidental deletion, or failed operations. Users seek recovery methods for data on drives showing as RAW, with threads detailing scenarios like ReFS drives becoming unrecognized or NTFS volumes being read as RAW after partition changes.
