Sounds like your SD card’s file system got corrupted but the data might still be recoverable. Kai has explained it better.
If you want reliable, widely trusted cards, go with SanDisk. Lexar offers good speed and value, often at a lower price. Choose based on your budget and performance needs!
Hey everyone, I’ve had some pictures get corrupted and now they won’t open. Do you know why this happens and if there’s any easy way or tool to fix them?
I’m getting errors when trying to open some JPEG files—they either won’t open or show corrupted images. These files might have been damaged during transfer or storage. Has anyone dealt with similar JPEG corruption before? What tools or methods did you use to repair or recover these images?
There are tools specifically made to repair corrupted JPEGs and PNGs. For JPEGs, tools like Stellar Repair for Photo or JPEG Repair Toolkit can sometimes fix header issues. For PNGs, you can try tools like PNG Repair Tool.
Ugh, that sounds super annoying. It’s definitely a frustrating issue when nothing seems to work. I’ve run into this a couple of times before.
Some BIOS settings can interfere with USB recognition. Try resetting your BIOS to default settings (or checking if USB legacy support is enabled). You can usually access BIOS by pressing a key like F2 or DEL during startup, depending on your PC.
My USB drive isn’t working properly and is acting weird. It’s not being detected on my computer, or it’s showing up as corrupted files. I’ve tried it on different ports and devices, but the issue persists. Has anyone experienced something like this before? Any troubleshooting tips or ways to fix it?
Sounds like a compatibility issue, especially since the card works in other devices.
If you’re still stuck, you can try booting from a Linux live USB (like Ubuntu). Sometimes Linux can read drives that Windows can’t. If Linux can see the card, just copy the files to your main drive or an external one.
Hey everyone, I’ve got a SanDisk pen drive that suddenly stopped working. When I plug it into my laptop, nothing happens — no drive letter, no notification, and it doesn’t show up in Disk Management or File Explorer. There’s also no error message at all.
I’ve tried multiple USB ports and even tested it on a couple of other computers — same issue. It’s like the pen drive isn’t being detected at all.
Has anyone run into this before? Any suggestions on what I can try to either fix it or at least recover the data?
Thanks in advance!
If it’s not showing up anywhere, it’s likely a physical issue. I’ve seen SanDisk drives fail like this before.
Check for hidden files on your computer — sometimes stuff doesn’t show up in the normal view.
Hey folks, I’m having a weird problem with my SD card. It’s not showing up on either my camera or my laptop. It works fine in other devices, but just not these two. I’ve tried cleaning the contacts, restarting both the camera and the laptop, and using a couple of different card readers, but nothing seems to help. Has anyone dealt with this before? Any tips on what I can try next? Appreciate any advice!
Dear Members,
I hope this message finds you well.
I need your urgent assistance. I am using a Mi Camera with a 32GB microSD card that typically stores around 5–6 days of recordings. However, I now need to recover specific recordings.
Could you please recommend any reliable data recovery software, tools, or companies (paid or free) that could help me recover these video files?
For your reference, I removed the microSD card from the camera yesterday to prevent further overwriting.
I would greatly appreciate your suggestions and guidance.
Hey folks, I’m getting an error on my SD card that says ‘The disk is not formatted. Do you want to format it now?’ But I can’t afford to lose the data on it. I’ve tried it on multiple devices, and it still gives the same error. Is there any way to fix this error without formatting the card, or is data recovery possible? Any tools or steps I should try?
