Q:

How can i recover files I can see with R Studio without paying

I had some video recordings that i accidentally wrote over with OBS, i tried using R Studio but the files are too big for the demo version, I can see that they are recoverable and where they were last seen. Is there a way to recover without having to pay the 80$ license?

Photorec, Recuva, DMDE are some free tools. You can try any.

I have had some situations where I was able to compare Recuva <> R-Studio. This was about deleted files purely (so no RAW, formatted etc.). R-Studio outperformed Recuva significantly.

You can check for some free recovery tools, but it also depends on the file format, deletion scenario, and the memory device.

Besides, overwritten data isn’t recoverable. But if you can see these recordings intact in the preview, there’s also a good chance they are just thumbnails. So double-check in the hex viewer.

You you can pay that measly $80, you can sent it to a professional data recovery place and spend $ 1000+. Otherwise, you are stealing.

Try Stellar Photo Recovery for just $49 which is better than these tools.
