Hello everyone, I am desperate and in need of help in any way possible.
I went for a company trip and couldn't bring my camera along so I had to record nice moments with my colleagues using my Samsung Galaxy S6, which turned out very nice. However, since I was recording QHD quality, space started to fill up fast until I had 100MB over left in my storage. Didn't want to delete anything because I thought everything was nice. Yes, I deleted the ones I didn't want/like.
So, I went to the local gadget store and got a OTG flash drive which looked like this. What I wasn't aware of was it came with SanDisk branding on the box and the drive itself but when I tried looking for the model on the website, it wasn't there. I was desperate so I plugged in, selected a few video files and moved them into the flash drive. When I wanted to show a friend the video, I could easily hook it up to his phone and could play back on the phone. Not sure if this is the cause but he did not unmount the drive before pulling it out. Next day, I could still transfer files into the drive.
Now, when I got back and checked, drive showed 100% free space, footages were all there but all with 0 bytes, and I panicked. Example I knew the last thing I want to do is format the drive. I tried Recuva, iCare Data recover softwares but only showed empty files and folders.
Please help because I'm losing a lot here. Job depends on the video.
Thanks.
