Recover SD Card Pictures

If you continue to use the camera, you run the risk of losing those photos forever. Once the card runs out of free space, it will begin looking at the deleted files pool for additional space. Stop using the camera to prevent your files from being lost forever.

• Download the free version (or paid version, it doesn’t matter) of Recuva from our free software downloads site, PCTechBytesFiles.com.
• Install the program.
• If your computer has an SD slot, remove the SD card and insert it into your computer.
• Launch the software. A  wizard will run, asking you where you want to look for deleted files. Find the drive letter associated with your computer and run a quick scan. If the quick scan doesn’t find the deleted photos from your SD card, try scanning the SD card in Enable Deep Scan mode. It takes longer, but will usually find everything.

If your computer does not have an SD card reader, you can try plugging your camera into the USB port of the computer and searching for it through the recovery wizard. If you cannot find the camera, you may need to break down and buy an SD Card Reader–they’re good to have, anyway.

Recuva can perform a deep scan in a few minutes and recover files that were delete long ago. As with any file recovery program, the more you use the hard drive after deleting a file, the less likely you will be able to recover it.

Recuva can also permanently shred files you never want recovered. This is great is you plan on selling the PC and do not want to risk having private documents recovered by strangers or snoops.

But the best technique for recovering files is to never lose them at all. Be sure to have a redundant method of backing up at home.  A Network Attached Storage device (NAS) is a convenient way to share a large drive with other computer in the house. At the very least, backup weekly to another hard drive or an online service like Carbonite.
