Files deleted from OneDrive + computer not found by PhotoRec
Posted: 10 Nov 2021, 18:03
Hello,
I recently synced my files with OneDrive and misinterpreted some online instructions for un-syncing a folder. I ended up permanently deleting a folder containing most of my photos. The folder in question had already partially synced but not all of the photos had made it online yet. I can use the OneDrive restore function to recover the photos that had already synced, but not the rest of them. I've tried using PhotoRec and TestDisk, but when I navigate to the correct directory, the deleted files do not show up. This was only one day ago, so I don't think they should have been overwritten by now. I'm wondering if the added OneDrive element complicates this somehow. Thank you!
