Hello, yesterday i moved around 2k photos to a 30gb usb flash drive I had lying around. The usb flash drive has been a little slow at times. After i moved them over to the usb stick, i deleted them from my computer.
But the next day, when i plugged in the usb stick back into my pc, the main folder that all the photos were in, just had been changed to a "file". That file itself is a lot smaller than all the pictures compared in size. But when i search in the search bar for *.* which will show all the files in the flash drive, alot of .CHK files appear. I have heard that these are recovery files, and I tried to move them over to my pc. At first the process is going smoothly, but after a short time it says that it is moving 0 bytes/second, and the remaining time is just increasing and increasing.
What can i do to recover the files from the usb stick? Is there anything i can do or any program i can install that lets me see recently moved/deleted files on my pc?
I am really upset that tthe pictures are gone and i realize that i made a big mistake moving them to a flash drive :/
Thanks in advance!
