I am attempting to recover deleted files from my memory card.
I ran Recuva in the advanced mode with no additional options - just a straight scan. It found 31 files and ignored 21 files in 0.13 seconds.
I selected all files and initiated Recovery. 2 files were immediately recovered and the time to recover the remaining files was listed as 18 hours. Cancelling the recover process and attempting to close Recuva was unsuccessful. I had to use Task Manager to end the program.
I checked for updates (I was good), made sure no other applications were open, then restarted Recuva. I ran it with the same parameters, selected 3 green files for recovery, and allowed it to run over night. When I checked it this morning, no files had been recovered and the estimated time for recovery was 5 days.
I uninstalled and reinstalled Recuva. Ran it with the same parameters and it found the same files in the same amount of time. I attempted to recover all files and this time got a different message: "Current progress: 0% 0 files recovered. Calculating time left ...? It stayed at this message for 10 minutes before I again had to use Task Manager to end the program.
I ran it again and selected 3 green files for recovery. Same result - "Current progress: 0% 0 files recovered. Calculating time left ..."
I have 254.4GB of free space, no other applications open, the CPU was running well, and the memory allocation was at 54%.
Any suggestions on how to get the recovery process to work.
Thanks,
Terri
