I have about 6500 photos of my children and other general photos which I would like to put onto a USB stick for safety and so I can make space on my hard drive (they take up 27GB).
I purchased a 32GB USB card and transferred all the photos onto it, but when I try to view them on the same laptop only about half work, the others don't show a thumbnail of the image and when I click them it says 'The file may be unsupported, damaged or corrupted.' These files work as they should on the drive I copied them from.
I've tried formatting a few times and re transferring but still get the same problem. I'm not sure if it's the same photos every time, but I don't think it is.
Can somebody tell me please why some work and some don't, and also how to resolve my issue?
