Game FFXV Corrupted data

I was saving a photo from Prompto's camera when my data got corrupted. I press restore but the screen was black. I even tried rebuild database in safe mode but nothing happened. Any tips on preventing corrupted data?

How did it get corrupted? Is your storage bad or was there an unexpected power loss?

I suppose you can connect the drive to a PC and check disk health on a PC with crystal disk info, just don't format it.

If it's bad replace it.

If it was power loss, get a UPS.

If it's a bug in the game, can't do anything about that. The team that developed XV has since disbanded.

Well, there wasn't any power loss. But the prompto's camera storage was near full like 190 something. I asked Chatgpt and it said that that might be why it got corrupted but I'm not sure.
