There I was, ready to give up hope as Disk Drill didn’t recover any working MP4 files. (Even when using video recovery software: they showed a few frames and then froze or glitched…)
Only to realize that ALL the MP4 files were corrupted and couldn’t play. There was no mention of them being corrupted anywhere on the application.)įull of hope, I bought the software (100€) and recovered everything to a separate SSD. (Which led me to believe they could read the content of the file. The JPEG showed a preview of the photo, and the MP4 files showed up as MP4 icons in the preview while being accompanied with tiny JPEG previews.
I installed the (free) software, did a scan, and it showed a hopeful 84GB of recovery on my 64GB card.Īfter the scan, I saw it could recover JPEG’s as well as MP4 files. Searching the internet, I came across Disk Drill Pro. So, I went on vacation, took my new GoPro to document the trip, returned home, and saw that the SD-card crashed. They state that “Any recovery at all is considered a blinding success, as file recovery was often thought impossible.” => So that’s their standard when it comes down to recovering files. No refunds, even when going through the whole process of explaining everything to customer service (with logs, proof that other software did work, etc.). EaseUS is the software that saved (all) my precious MP4 files WITHOUT corrupting them. Don’t buy DiskDrill Pro: Recovery corrupted all the MP4 files from the GoPro Hero 10. I lost 100€ on this software that didn’t live up to its promise. Beware of the recovery capabilities of this software!
