USB drive formatted by MBP, how to recover the filesOptions
06-29-2017 03:57 AM
I connected the USB drive to my Macbook Pro and all of sudden the drive was formatted as the system says there are virus on the disk. Now, all files were gone and I need them back. Possible to recover the files under this circumstances?

07-04-2017 08:42 AM as long as the drive was not low level formatted data may be recoverable. you will need a data recovery application. there are plenty of free ones online you can try. I have used recuva before with some good success. Re: USB drive formatted by MBP, how to recover the filesOptions

07-26-2017 08:07 PM Files loss will cause big trouble if the files was covered by other new files , you need to recover them back before these files are covered , as for how to recover lost files ,you can find some solution on Google , or try some free tool to recover lost files , Re: USB drive formatted by MBP, how to recover the filesOptions
08-02-2017 08:14 PM Try some data recovery software, like Recuva mentioned above. If it fails to recover your files, I would personally recommend RePicvid. Good luck for you. Re: USB drive formatted by MBP, how to recover the files[ Edited ]Options

08-03-2017 02:38 AM Ed_P, it depends on your requirement. The only difference between $35 and $89 version is the license number for PC. Re: USB drive formatted by MBP, how to recover the filesOptions
