Windows 10: Restoring latest files from Windows Backup using 'Restore Files' when original location...

One of my drives F has failed. I have been backing up this drive using Windows backup and want to resore the latest versions to my C drive. As the F drive is no longer available it is no longer in the folder list to be backed up in Backup options. When I use 'Restore Files from Backup' the F files are not showing as it not on the backup list. I can see the F files on the backup disc itself but as some files have numerous versions to restore just the latest version it going to be cumbersome and time consuming. Is there any way around this?

Corrupt files when restored

Hello everyone,
The story goes like this: I accidentally deleted all my photos of a 3 month long trip I had from my 2TB backup drive *Bang Head :banghead: (!!!).
I noticed it after two weeks and the drive was in use (It also a storage for movies and such).
I had tried "GetDataBack for NTFS" and luckily all the files and folders are found in their original size and order.
However, when I try to restore them all the files appears to be corrupt.
I know chances are against me but I'm willing to try anything to restore them.
Anyone with experience in the matter is welcome to offer a solution.

Few more things that might be relevant:
the photos are JPEG but few (very important ones) are BMP .
there are also movies in AVI. The total of all files is ~20GB. and all of them come out corrupt.
I have some of the files intact and valid in a different folder, so maybe a comparison can help (Just an idea).
File system is NTFS. OS is Windows 7 64bit.
Thanks

 

Deleted file restore software.

Shute I never thought about system restore. But its been more than a week now, don't know if I can go back that far. But even then will it put back user files?

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.
