Hi @Picchic,

Please be informed that SanDisk®’s warranty does NOT provide for data recovery or reimbursement for data recovery services. The SanDisk® warranty covers the product itself but does not cover any damages (monetary loss claims) due to data loss.

Please refer to the following article for the data recovery for flash drive and memory card:[Data recovery for memory cards and flash drives](https://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4985)

Unfortunately, there are no hacks. You have to face the consequences. I am feeling sorry for you.

Hi! You can absolutely get your data back! There are a ton of data recovery services that all basically do the same thing, but the one that I have personally been using is Disk Drill and it easily recovers deleted files from usb plugs and sd cards, even from years prior. I highly recommend it! Good luck!
