Same thing will work on mac too?????
My pictures were gone from my mac ;(. I was such a foolish to not use the Time machine for updates.
Sometimes deleted files aren’t actually erased but hidden. You can try:
sudo find / -name “*.jpg” 2>/dev/null
Or, you can check your iCloud backup.
I accidentally deleted some important pictures from my MacBook Pro running macOS Ventura. They’re not in the Trash or Photos app recently deleted folder. I didn’t use Time Machine. Is there any way to recover these photos using software or Terminal commands?
Could these steps cause data loss, or is it safe to proceed without backing up the system first?
My MacBook is running unusually slowly. Even simple tasks like opening Safari, switching between apps, or launching Finder take seconds. To make matters worse, the system now takes over two minutes to boot up, whereas it used to be ready in under 30 seconds.
If your Mac desktop feels overwhelmingly cluttered, there are several simple ways to restore order and keep things tidy. Start by using the Stacks feature, which automatically organizes your desktop files into neat groups based on type, date, or tags—just right-click on the desktop and select “Use Stacks.”
Is there any way to fix it?
Hi,
I’m facing a similar issue and have already tried all the suggested steps. However, my main concern is that I can’t find the PID in Task Manager, so I’m not able to identify which application is causing the error. Could you please suggest any other solution to help me diagnose or fix the problem?
If WMI Provider Host is using too much CPU, restart it in services.msc. Check Event Viewer for errors under WMI-Activity > Operational, find the PID, and match it in Task Manager to see which app is causing it. Update or remove that app. Run a malware scan and restart your PC.
If you see “Required Files Are Not Trusted,” restart your PC. If it keeps happening, turn off Secure Boot in BIOS, run sfc /scannow in Command Prompt, and check your date and time. Install any Windows updates. If it still doesn’t work, use a USB installer or check for bad drivers.
If you see “TPM has malfunctioned,” restart your PC first. If it keeps showing, go to BIOS settings, clear or reset the TPM, and make sure TPM is enabled.
Update your BIOS and TPM driver, and install Windows updates. If the problem stays, the TPM hardware might be bad and need fixing.
The 0xC1900101 – 0x20004 error means a driver or compatibility problem is stopping Windows from installing. To fix it, unplug extra devices, update your drivers, and free up disk space. Turn off antivirus, check and update your BIOS, and run the Windows Update Troubleshooter. Try a clean boot or install Windows from a USB. If it still fails, check for bad drivers and update or remove them.
nvpcf.sys is part of NVIDIA software. If you get blue screens after updating, try this: fully remove NVIDIA drivers using DDU, then reinstall the latest drivers. Turn off any GPU tools like overclocking apps. Run sfc /scannow to fix system files. Update other drivers and Windows. Test your memory and GPU for hardware issues. If the problem started after a driver update, try an older driver. If it still crashes, the full error code can help.
vgk.sys is part of Riot Vanguard, the anti-cheat system for Valorant. If it causes blue screen crashes, run sfc /scannow and DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth in an administrator Command Prompt.
Disable or uninstall any other antivirus or anti-cheat programs that might conflict with Vanguard. Update or roll back your graphics and network drivers. Do a clean boot to check for software conflicts.
Make sure the Vanguard service is running and update your BIOS if needed. Finally, uninstall Vanguard and Valorant completely, restart your PC, and reinstall them.
Hi Mack,
Of course, you need to download the Mac version of photo recovery software. Rest the process is simple to recover the pictures from Mac.
