The #microSD card in my phone has gotten corrupted.
My (dusty) Windows7 laptop says the disk format is exFat and that the disk is now good.
Pretty sure the Android phone wants Fat32, so how did it ever work in the phone?
Used #FreeFileSync to backup the card's files to a laptop. But some files not transferable.
Used #chkdsk but AOK there.
Hours taken by this #TrashyTech so far?
Three? Five? Getting other things done but ....
So now trying #DiskDrill.
Hours gone, #IT is like #RecreationalDrugUse - high cost, time spent messing around, questionable returns.
The little bastard below is now not recognised by phone or laptop.
#WindowsThreePointOne was 32 years ago. And we're being served up #TrashyTech into the 4th decade.
Anyone know of history behind the #Dynabook brand? I thought they were #Toshiba produced?
#DataRecoveryService (not for the microSD but a external HD that has also gone kaput - #WesternDigital) being considered.
Have learnt that "We only charge you fees if you make a profit" can work out more like, "We'll make risky bets with your money and who cares if you lose your dosh? We'll profit big if the nag comes in at 500 to one"
So the outfit who have a guaranteed very low price?
I can imagine they try a quick and cheap software recovery method, take my money, and then return the disk.
