  1. Does a SD card leave any data once removed?


    If i put a SD card containing images into a android phone or windows pc, not transfer anything just view the images from the SD and then remove the SD card, does it leave any trace of those images on the phone or pc so i can recover those images? SD card is not working anymore.

    :)

  2. Win10 doesn't recognize SD-card removal

    Could you provide a little more detail as to how you know that Windows is not recognizing the removal of the SD card? What are you seeing specifically that leads you to this conclusion?

    Also, could you please try this:

    Start with SD card inserted.
    Open a command prompt and run the command "diskpart". Wait for the "DISKPART>" prompt.
    Run the command "list disk".
    All disks (including the SD card) should be listed. It should be obvious which the SD card is by its size.
    Remove the SD card.
    Run "list disk" again.
    Does the SD card still show up?
    Run "exit" to exit from diskpart.
    Close the command prompt.

  3. SD CARD ERROR

    Hi,

    Since you already performed a hard reset and the issue was only resolved for a short period of time. We suggest that you format your SD card using the steps below:

    • Connect your memory card to a PC with a USB reader that has a microSD card slot. If your card reader or PC has a regular SD card slot, you can use a microSD card adapter.
    • Use the File Explorer and browse to the removable storage on your computer, right-click the memory card and select Format.
    • For 4-32 GB cards, select the file system FAT32 and allocation unit size 32 kilobytes and press Start. For 64-200 GB cards, select the file system exFAT and allocation unit size 128kB.
    • Press OK to confirm the data loss warning message. When the formatting process is complete, press OK.
    • Restore only the data that is compatible with your phone (JPEG or MP4 in the photos folder or MP3 in the music folder).
    • Right-click the memory card, select Eject, and wait until it is safe to remove the card.
    • Insert the memory card into the memory card slot in the phone until it locks into place.
    After formatting a SD card, try to check if the issue persists.

    If formatting your SD card didn't resolved the issue, we suggest that you use another SD card to check if the issue still persists.

    Let us know the results.

    Regards.

    Win10 doesn't recognize SD-card removal

    Well, this is interesting...
    First, let me address DISKPART... I have the SD card inserted in the reader. I know it is inserted, because it shows up in Explorer, as SDHC (EDoes a SD card leave any data once removed? :). Here is a current drive listing from another program:

    Code:
    The SD card is E: in this listing...

    however, this is what DISKPART shows right now:

    Microsoft DiskPart version 10.0.19041.610

    Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.
    On computer:

    Code:
    So I'm guessing it is listing the drives in this order: C:, D:, F:, E:
    however, the free space listed is completely irrelevant.

    > removal of SD card:
    Once I remove the SD card from the reader, it is *still* shown in Explorer.
    From a console, I can change to E:, can even execute DIR and get the listing for the no-longer-present drive.

    *however* ... once I execute 'list disk' in DISKPART, the drive is removed from Explorer... interesting...
