Photos that are accidentally erased on memory cards are often the result of an incorrect manipulation. Accidental deletion of photos or formatting of a memory card are among the most common causes of such loss. Virus attacks are also to blame, as well as physical damage to the media.
Recovering lost photos from an SD card is possible, and thankfully, this operation is within everyone’s reach – from the novice computer user to the expert programmer – with a recovery software program.
However, you should remember that data recovery software is only effective on computer-recognized media. If your media is not recognized on your computer, you will have to go down the route of sending your device into a data recovery laboratory.
Photo recovery software that has been designed to recover deleted photos from an SD card is simple to use. Once launched, the tool performs a complete and in-depth analysis of your SD card. It then finds and displays deleted or inaccessible files. All data and photo recovery software is based on the same concept, but the process differs from one tool to another.
Even though recovering images from an SD card with a photo recovery software is easy, there are a number of points to consider in order to optimize the success of the operation. As soon as you notice that the pictures stored on the SD card are deleted or inaccessible, do not use the memory card anymore as you could cause irreversible damage.
Connect your SD card to a computer and run the software.

The software will scan the SD card and show a list of photos that be recovered. Select the files that you are interested in and save them in a safe location.
