Recovering Damages Files

I am looking for a good way to repair recovered files, i.e. pics and videos. These are home videos that I shot on my camera and would love to repair them so I could view them. Any suggestions or tips?

hey Crazee,

In what way are they damaged? are they on a dvd you cant read? are they on your hard disk, or still on camera?
Do they have a reasonable file size ie not zero bytes ? Post the file properties if you can.

you could also try the freeware here Ive not tried it myself thou so no recommendation http://www.filerepair1.com
Good luck and report back.

You can try Recuva, it's freeware and it works pretty well:

Ive had a friend used "get data back" Or some spelling of that. It worked well for him

It has a substantial file size and they are recovered from my HD and off of a phone SD card.

Oh and I have no idea how they are damaged. When I try to open them after recovery it says filed damaged could not play yadda yadda. So I am trying to find a method as to which to repair these files. Thanks for the assistance so far!

Recuva is decent software. Acronis makes some awesome software also.

Any recomendation for deleted files from SIM card?
