G'day all,
Not a guru by any means so I apologise if the following doesn't make sense.
Bought a 64Gb micro SD for my GoPro and used it for many days on holidays before it came up with an SD card error warning. I put the SD into my laptop to see if I could see the files, but unfortunately it only asks me to format the card. I'm guessing this is only going to delete all my files, so not what I want.
A friend suggested I use Test Disk to try and rectify the issue but this hasn't proven to work. Having said that, I'm no professional and have never used the program before. All I know is, I can use Test Disk to select the drive, analayse the drive, and then do a deeper search, but it doesn't come up with any partitions.
Does anyone know what could be the cause?? I've watched a few YouTube clips to try better understand what I am trying to do with Test Disk, but to be honest, I'm still scratching my head.
Also, I downloaded Data Recovery Pro (DRP) and gave that a go. For whatever reason whilst using the program I cannot see the G:/ which is the drive I need to recover/fix. My computer recognises there is an SD card there, but DRP does not.... ????
Any help on this one would be greatly appreciated. The SD has a lot of holiday photos and movies on it
Cheers!
Jordan
