Corrupt USB leading to inaccessibility of the photos

usb photos recovery

Is your USB corrupt and you have lost all your priceless photos in the USB? Are you in search of method to recover photos from your corrupt USB?

Actually, in such condition, if you have an updated backup, you can recover your photos from that. But in absence of a proper backup, you can recover your photos by the use of a third party card recovery software. It really works!

Actually a USB is an external storage device that holds the data in electronic form. It is a portable high capacity device that is easy to carry along anywhere. The device is however, prone to corruption. The corruption in the USB can be due to the following reasons:

  • Virus attack
  • Pulling out the device during the data transfer
  • Sudden Power surge
  • Magnetic field interference

In such case you are at risk of losing your photographs. In such condition an updated backup comes to your rescue. But when you do not have a clean and updated backup to restore the lost photos, you have to format the USB to bring it back to the working condition. But formating the USB leads to damage of the data (photos) saved in it. In such condition, a card recovery software is the best option to use to get back your lost data.

Actually when you format the USB, the data is not immediately wiped out of it. Rather, it is still present on the USB. Unless something is not written into the USB, the data previously saved remain intact. It only does not appear in the screen but still lies in the original memory location.

It is therefore recommended, when you lose certain data (photo) from your USB, do not perform any write operation before recovering the data. The photo recovery software uses this principle to recover the photos lost or corrupted from the USB.
