How can I recover the files from my USB stick that was corrupted?
I was trying to transfer files from my desktop to my USB pen and suddenly stopped. And when I tried to access my USB stick, I can get this prompt "The disk drive is not formatted. Do you want to format it now?" I need to keep the files that was in it that's why I do not want to format the drive.
People often feel panic when I see this. If I format the drive, will I lose all my data? If not, how could I get access to my files?
My take is that you may have to format the card and then use recovery software to recover your files.
Here's some information about file recovery, think you need to take a look, very useful
