I recently downloaded the file to use photorec but it won't run, I've used it on a different PC which is operating on Windows 7 and it runs fine. Problem being that the Windows 7 machine won't recognise my SD card which I'm trying to retrieve my files from.
Needless to say I'm pretty frustrated about now. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I'm working on Win8 too.
I've no problems.
Can you explain your problem a little bit closer?
Also there shouldn't be a big difference between Win7-PC and Win8-PC.
Is your card recognized on your Win8-PC?
Photorec seems to stay on "disk verification..." and not find anything, not even my laptop hard drive. I have managed to find the SD card through: Computer - Manage - storage device. But it does not show up when I initially plug it in. I believe it's a fault with the SD card though after reading numerous Samsung Galaxy S3 forums.
