Data Recovery
Data recovery is the process of attempting to restore files from deleted, damaged, formatted, corrupted, or failing storage media while protecting evidentiary value where needed.
It is a transactional search when a drive, phone, SD card, or computer contains important files that are no longer accessible.
Stop using the device or drive immediately because continued writes may overwrite recoverable data.
