  1. I am talking about HDD, which is where the files were located. It is NTFS. I can't even find those names ($nnn.ext), altho I do recall those being there back when everything was working. I've tried scanning a different partition as a test and there were only like 5-6 $Rnnn files out of 1000s. Most of the 1000s are just useless stuff bytes in size with alpha numeric names. Those are back from 2012. THere should've been newer stuff though. The partition that I'm interested in only found one corrupt video from 2014. I've had many and I've test deleted some from recent. It's not being found. I had no idea what MFT was until now. I don't recall running this feature. I only run my tests in different partitions, I've left the one I'm interested in as-is. Thank you for taking the time.
  2. This issue is pretty wack. I've used recuva before in the past and it has worked perfectly. A few weeks ago I reinstalled it and the results have been weird. I'm trying to recover videos, and it's hardly showing me any in drives that had 100s. The few it does show are from 5+ years ago, nothing recent. And even those ones, after recovering the files ... those files don't work. I thought maybe recuva had some new update so I experimented with other software (not sure if allowed to list)... I'd say I experimented with all the free ones. Same stuff! One in particular was able to get a few extra results with file names that were quite recent. But same thing, after I extract it won't work. So now, I built a new PC with win10 (before was win7), added the HD with files as secondary, and tried recuva and still same results. I've tried using some old version site for older version of recuva... still same. I'm not sure what's going on but it's too weird if it's same result across different software and different OS. Before when I used recuva, I would get a whole library of deleted stuff because all of my HDD were hardly touched because I use SSD as my main drive. So to experiment, I added a bunch of videos to my new HDD and then deleted some. Recuva isn't picking up any of them nor is the other software. Is it some windows setting perhaps?
