Windows 10: Restore files

I have to create restore points every day sometimes more than once. These files are being deleted and i have

no idea what could be causing it. I had a tech clean out and update the Windows software, run malware programs but

it still continues. Anyone out ther have this problem?

:)

 

Restoring Windows 10 Image using Macrium Reflect


In addition to the above. Here's my suggestion in step by step.
I assume you have Macrium Installed in your current HD and already made a backup copy.

1. Connect your new HD via USB port and boot up.
2. Run Macrium, click on Restore tab then select the Backup Image that you made to restore
3. click on "select a different target disk" then select your new HD as destination
   
   
   
4. Proceed to restore then Shutdown and disconnect the old HD and replace with the new HD
5. Boot up with your new HD.

 

Deleted file restore software.

I cant remember if it recovers old files OR leaves new files on the computer even after you do the restore. I havent used it in a while.

 

Corrupt files when restored

Took me a while to answer, and follow the instructions.
Here are the results:
Restoring from the 2TB drive failed and the FAQ page on GetDataBack site explains this scenario (file name found but on valid data to restore on NTFS) quite well.
Recuva software also found the files by name but they weren't valid to restore. For the next part Recuva wasn't helpful, too.
I decided to try a different approach. I managed to find an old HDD (that I stopped using because it fell and "got" bad sectors) that had the photos. I used R-Studio program to skip those sectors (manually, they were too much for the program to ignore in sequential scan) and managed to restore all of them (I think).
Thanks for the help.
Hope it helps someone.
