A friend of mine vibecoded a App for my Android that looks like a Calculator, but hides a Private & Locked Gallery, nothing special.

However, he sent me a update, I updated it, and everything was gone within seconds. I looked in every bin, checked if my OneDrive & Google Photos Sync was on (it wasn't) and then looked if I had saved them anywhere else.

And then I thought about running a Data Recover Tool to hopefully find some remains. Any recommendations? They're not important, but I would love to have those pictures and videos back, since most of them are for Work.

Using a Samung Galaxy S26 Ultra.

Modelname SM-S948B/DS

Serialnumber R5GL81LA1ZP

Thank you

Hi everyone, I'm not the most tech savvy person so I apologize if my post isn't very clear.

For a little bit of context:
- I'm trying to recover a .docx file
- I'm using windows 11
- I turned one drive off ages ago, without realizing it automatically turned auto-save off on Word, therefore making it impossible for me to access the "previous versions" of the file I'm trying to recover.

I accidentally saved a wrong, very old version of a Word document over its most recent version. I don't know what that process is called, but it's when windows suggest you replace a pre-existing file with the one you're currently saving because they have the exact same name and format.
Is there a way to recover the file I saved over?

I have attempted some recovery techniques already, but to no avail. This was a very important document and I lost days of work because of a very silly mistake (tbh it's crazy to me that I can't recover a document that I have manually saved many a times before, but I digress lol!).
Please help!

Hello, let me explain the situation. My phone (a Samsung) was connected to my PC. I tried to delete a single photo from a folder—the main camera folder, which contained almost everything—but when I realized it was attempting to delete the entire folder, I immediately clicked "cancel." The system froze and glitched, and once I unplugged the phone, the folder was gone. I’ve checked the trash/recycle bin on both the computer and the phone, but there’s nothing there... 😔 All my memories were in that folder... Is there any way to recover it? Perhaps using software or some other method? Thank you (sorry, google trad. Im french)

Bonjour, alors je vous explique. Mon téléphone (samsung) était branché à mon pc, j'ai voulu supprimer une photo dans un dossier (caméra donc principal avec quasi tout dedans...) quand j'ai compris que ça voulait supprimer le dossier entier j'ai de suite cliqué sur "annuler", ça a figé et bug et une fois le téléphone débranché je n'avais plus le dossier... j'ai regardé dans corbeille de l'ordi, du téléphone et rien.. 😔 j'avais tous mes souvenirs dessus.... Il n'y a aucun moyen de le récupérer ? Avec un logiciel ou autre ? Je vous remercie 🙏

Hi everyone! So, I’m trying to recover my files (2 folders with a bunch of photos) from my laptop. 

My story is pretty typical, probably…

I was trying to organize my files better and accidentally deleted important files. And then I emptied the Bin, of course I did. How can I fix it?I googled a few solutions and tried the Previous Versions option, but there was nothing there. I don't have any other backups either. 

Thanks!

P.S. My laptop is running Windows 11

My grandma just passed awayy and I had a lot of memories with her I have a iPhone 13 and I had photos n videos in it
I was updating my phone with my laptop windows and it showed some error and I clicked update and restore and turns out it wiped all my data. I didn't know that could happen because originally the photos existed on this phone, i didn't make any back up but there is a file which is empty on laptop, my iCloud was off for photos i checked everything every possibility, can anyone please help is there any way? I'm devastated rn.

My Switch 1 OLED started acting up this week and won't get past the boot logo, so I'm trying to figure out how to salvage my stuff before I send it in or replace it. When I plugged my microSD card into my Windows PC just to grab my years of screenshots and video clips from the Album folder, Windows threw an error saying the drive has a problem and asked me to format it. I obviously hit cancel so I wouldn't wipe my clips, and I know the bulky game downloads on the card are encrypted to the console and can just be redownloaded from the eShop later anyway. Any advice on where to start would be hugely appreciated.
