  2. Photos copied from my phone to my Laptop got corrupted with enormous file sizes

    I am really, really freaked out.

    I cut-pasted photos and videos from my phone (Samsung phone running Android) to my Windows 10 Lenovo laptop. Now the files are all 16 GB - 17 GB in size (the folder is 39 TB in size, though the size on disk is correct). I don't know what happened. They are
    not opening (File cannot be opened because it is corrupted). Please help me, I don't have backup and its over 2200 photos and videos. Other photos and videos are opening.

    (My laptop cannot have 39 TB of photos in it, its impossible. So the actual size has to be the correct one somehow, the one on disk).

    Things I have tried:

    1. Restarting my system.

    2. Updating all drivers and restarting the system.

    3. Copying file and opening in another laptop, didn't work. Also compressing the file and then extracting in another laptop.

    4. Trying to fix a corrupt .mp4 file with VLC media player.

    Please help me find these files again, I'll try literally everything you guys think will work.

    Java.nio.file - Copying files

    You can't copy a folder, thats why it generates an exception (you are trying to copy a folder using a copy file function).
    You probably need to list all the files inside that folder and copy one by one
