Hello guys, I just used photo rec to try and recover the pictures and videos from my micro sd card. Some of the pictures and videos were recovered in jpg/mp4 form and I can open them but most of the files were recovered in a form called "ecryptfs". Can someone please help me open these pictures ? Do I need a different file extension to open them, or some kind of software ? Please help me.

No, because I don't know your password(s).

You don't need to select a different file extension when your desired files have been recovered.

Why should your computer password be the right one for your files on your micro SD card?
You are clearly hiding important information.
