How to Recover Deleted Videos from SanDisk Memory Card

"Please help! How can I recover deleted videos from SanDisk memory card?"

Have you ever run into such problems before? How did you restore the lost data or leave it not recovered till now? If you haven't stored any new information to the memory card which the files were lost from, it is much possible for you to retrieve them. Provided that you have written new data into the media card, it will become more difficult to do so, but you still have the chance to restore some of the old files.

Can the videos deleted from my SanDisk memory card be recovered?

Here are some of the frequently asked questions and their solutions:

"I have a SanDisk memory card; it is an 8 GB one, and I have stored a mass of files on the memory. But yesterday evening, I deleted the folder that contains all my favorite movies and films that shot by myself. Even worse, I mistakenly formatted the memory card after deleting. I am so sad that I am afraid all the videos inside the memory card would never be found back. Is there any hope for me to regain what I lost?"

Like other types of multimedia files, videos are usually stored by people in the memory cards. Once they are deleted from the memory drive, the memory card users are able to recover them by means of data recovery software, under the premise that the lost files are not overwritten by other information.

Data recovery software is capable of restoring files of a variety of file formats, such as pictures formatted with BMP, JPG、TIFF、GIF、PCX、TGA、EXIF、FPX、SVG、PSD、CDR、PCD、DXF、EPS and RAW, audios formatted with WAV、AIFF、AU、MPEG、MIDI、WMA、VQF、AAC、APE and MP3, videos formatted with MPEG、MPG、DAT、AVI、MOV、ASF、WMV、NAVI、MKV and MP4.

Data recovery software is also helpful when data got lost from a memory card due to other reasons such as data loss after formatting, data loss due to memory card error, etc. The data recovery software can work on all types of memory cardd, which is able to recover formattd SD card, RAW memory card and more.

What would happen if I suspended the data recovery process?

"Actually, I had left the data recovery half done because of some urgent matters and I have to use the memory card at once. I wonder if it is okay to do so. I'm a little bit worried about the result of recovery."

It is unwise to leave the recovery progress half finished and move on to do other things, because this is really risky! It is most likely that you will have to lose some of your files for ever! Instead of restoring the data, this interruption will damage your memory drive and lead to secondary data loss, which is far more serious than the data loss itself.

Therefore, you should never call off the recovery job halfway in case of a permanent data loss. If you did such a stupid thing, you'll have to pay for it later.
