Stellar Phoenix Photo Recovery Software

A Flash memory is a particular type of technology used to store data digitally. The data stored on it can be written and erased electrically using cameras, computers cell phones etc. Today you will find a number of flash drives available in the markets�whether they are Flash drives, flash cards, etc. The technology they use is the same. Added to this is the fact that one does not need any kind of an additional software to run a flash device. As with all hard disks, the Flash too uses a particular file format. Earlier flash drives used FAT 12 or FAT 16, today they have switched over to FAT 32. This means that the device is not far from facing problems related to over-writing or any sort of physical damage.

Today it is most commonly used to store photos. The drive getting damaged means that photos can get deleted. Since no storage device is safe, one can rest assured that you can use a photo recovery software to recover lost photos.

For example, when you are using a camera with a Compact flash(CF) card, and you suddenly pull out the card just after taking a shot.

Cause:

The cause for this is simple, when you have any memory card, pulling it out of the camera either immediately after taking a shot or even when the camera is on, corrupts the card. This makes the photos on it inaccessible.

Solution:

Of course the saying ‘prevention is better than cure‘ is true, but once the damage is done, prevention tips don’t help. On the contrary they make us feel worse!!

The solution to the problem is using a photo recovery software to recover deleted photos. These softwares can be downloaded from the Internet and then used to scan any hard drive to search for deleted photos.

Windows 7 and Vista include a full disk encryption feature, called BitLocker Drive Encryption, that allows you to protect your data by encrypting the entire volumes. The latest version of Bitlocker included in Windows 7 comes ship with an added functionality of encrypting the removable media such as a USB flash drive, memory stick or digital storage media cards like SD cards. But when you encrypt the removable media that is formatted to FAT file system in Windows 7 and try to use in a digital camera or a system using Windows other than Windows 7, you might experience that the media is not accessible. One of the possible ways to solve such problem is to reformat the removable media and restore lost digital files using backup. But when no valid backup is available, you need to use Digital Photo Recovery solutions to effectively restore the lost photos, videos and audios.

To illustrate this, consider that you are using a FAT formatted USB flash drive, memory stick or digital storage media cards like SD card. You encrypt the media using BitLocker Drive Encryption of Windows. The next time, you observe one of the below symptoms:

• You connect the encrypted USB flash drive, memory stick or SD card to a digital camera, a mobile phone or a MP3 player and find that media fails to work
• You connect the encrypted USB flash drive, memory stick or SD card with a Windows Vista or XP based system and observe that you cannot write any data to it. The media shows that there is no free space available and its file system is FAT32

Cause

Windows 7 creates a discovery volume formatted to FAT32 file system on space that is invisible and virtualized in Windows 7. When you connect it a system using Windows other than Windows 7, the system detects FAT32 discovery volume and the original bit locked volume becomes invisible. Thus, system recognizes media with FAT32 file system. Such issues typically occur if the device accessing it requires FAT file system and not FAT32.

Solution

Possible way outs of solving the issue are:

• Use Windows 7 to decrypt the removable media
• Reformat the removable media with FAT file system and restore from backup. If no clean data backup can be accessed, you should use Photo Recovery tools for recovering lost data.
