Here’s how to fix the ftdibus.sys error blocking Memory Integrity:
1. Update the FTDI driver from the official FTDI website.
2. In Device Manager, find the USB device using the FTDI chip and update its driver.
3. If updating doesn’t work, disable the device in Device Manager, turn on Memory Integrity, then re-enable the device.
4. Restart the PC after updates.
If you use “Files by Google”, check the “Trash” section (it holds deleted stuff for 30 days, but only if the app was allowed access to manage your files).
If you didn’t use any backup or syncing options, opt for an Android data recovery software. I used it on my Windows laptop — it helped me recover most of my recordings, even ones that weren’t backed up.
Just remember..don’t use your phone too much until you try recovery.. new data can overwrite the deleted files.
Here’s a quick fix for the “Your PIN is no longer available” error:
1. At login, pick Sign-in options and use your password.
2. Press Windows + R, type %appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Ngc, and delete all files in that folder.
3. Restart your PC.
4. Go to Settings > Accounts > Sign-in options and create a new PIN.
If you can’t log in with your password, try password reset or Safe Mode.
I was trying to clean up some storage on my Android phone and ended up deleting a folder that had a bunch of my audio call recordings some of them were work-related and really important. I didn’t realize they were gone until a couple of days later when I needed one of them. I’ve checked the File Manager, Gallery, and even the Google Files app, but I can’t find anything. Is there any way I can recover those lost audio recordings?”**
Here are few things you can try:
First, double-check Google Photos, Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive if you had any sync or backup turned on. These cloud apps usually keep deleted stuff for 30–60 days.
If there’s no backup and nothing in the trash, then your best shot is using an android data recovery software. It works without rooting and can recover deleted videos, even from internal storage or SD cards.
Just make sure you don’t add any new files or apps on your phone until recovery — or your deleted data might get overwritten.
My computer says “Hard Drive Not Installed” and doesn’t detect my drive. Has anyone else had this happen? Any simple fixes would be great.
Thanks!
I accidentally deleted important videos from my Android phone. They’re not in the gallery trash. Is there any way to get them back? Please help!
I’m seeing an error that says “Unable to determine volume version and state” and now I can’t access my drive. I’m really worried about my data.
Has anyone run into this before? What’s the best way to fix it and recover files?
Thanks for any advice!
I keep getting an error with ftdibus.sys that’s stopping Memory Integrity from turning on. Has anyone dealt with this? Any simple fixes or tips would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Totally possible..and honestly, you’re right to avoid rooting. It’s not worth the risk just for data recovery. Rooting can mess up your system, void warranties, or even brick your phone if not done properly.
If you haven’t backed up your chats to Google Drive recently, try an android data recovery. They work without rooting and can recover various deleted whatsapp data.
Also, check your phone’s Recycle Bin or Google Drive first, just in case they’re still there.
Main thing: stop using the phone for new downloads/apps until you try recovery — or else the deleted data might get overwritten.
Is it possible to recover deleted WhatsApp chats and photos from my Android without rooting it? I really don’t want to mess with rooting because I’ve heard it’s risky
When I turn on my Windows 11 PC, I get this message:
“Your PIN is no longer available due to a change to the security settings on this device.”
I can’t log in or reset the PIN. I didn’t change any settings. I use a local account.
Tried restarting, Safe Mode, and resetting the PIN—nothing works.
Any simple fix for this without resetting the whole PC?
Thanks.
Ah, the classic SD card drama- deleting everything and still being told it’s full. It’s like cleaning your fridge and the smell’s still there.
Turns out, your SD card is probably hoarding files in hidden folders like a digital squirrel. Or the file system’s just confused. This dude has given the right solution I guess.
Do let us know your experience.
Check your File Manager or Files by Google app (sometimes there’s a Trash/Recycle Bin where deleted files hang around for a few days). If it’s still there, just hit “Restore.”
If not, try checking Google Drive trash if they were ever synced.
If you still come up empty, you’ll probably need a android data recovery software. They have the ability to scan your phone for deleted files, including PDFs. Just install it on a PC, plug in your phone, and run a scan. It’ll show you what can still be recovered.
Just don’t use your phone too much till then (new stuff generally overwrites the deleted files)
Last weekend, I had to hand over my phone to a friend to show them a vacation album, and I realized some of my personal photos were still visible in the Gallery. It got a bit awkward. I don’t want to delete those photos, just make sure they’re hidden from the gallery view. Is there a simple way to hide private photos and videos on an Android phone without using any complicated third-party apps?
