  1. Files missing from hard drive after Windows 11 Recovery used


    I had an issue with a recent Windows 11 update. After researching, I used information from Microsoft to rest not reinstall Windows 11 and used the most recent restore point. I noticed today that several folders were empty, which I had files in prior to the issue. I don't know what happened to the files, and I can't find them anywhere. Is there a way to recover them? I have saved two restore points. One is the restore point used to fix the issues. The other is the restore point after the last update that caused the problem. Thanks for any help or insight you can provide.

    :)

    Best hard drive recovery data program?

    Hi guys,

    I just wanted to know from you all what would be the best recovery program to use to get files off a dying hard drive? The files arnt lost, or deleted etc, its just that the HDD is in poor shape and windows cant access the drive fully, it can see the drive but no access it, so i was wondering what's a good program that can just list all the files on the drive so i can back them up?

    Im current using "Recover my files" but it only seems to get file's that have been deleted, not helpful, im also going to try Norton Ghost, that might work?

    Thanks in advance *Toast :toast:

    Stored files in Hard Drive

    You can use Windows search. Just search for *.* on a desired drive. When list is done just arrange them by size LOL.

    You can do it via command line as well and make an output text file showing files and their sizes (but without arrangement)

    Recover files from Flash drive

    Does not work on a windows pc which is what the OP probably intended

    windows by default does not have HFS and HFS+ based hard drives.
    Able to perform retrieval on both HFS and HFS+ based hard drives. and so will not work with windows

    thanks for the effort
