Ready to recover lost images using File Finder? Finding those digital photographs that you have accidentally deleted or that have somehow mysteriously disappeared of their own device is extremely simple when using File Finder. Let us begin by taking a fast look at how we recover files using conventional types such as JPEG and PNG. If our files are stored in these and other conventional types they are most likely stored on either our computer’s internal hard drive or an external storage device such as a compact flash drive or a memory card.
The method we use to find files stored in any of these locations is the same. Begin by loading onto your computer the File Finder recovery disk. You will have made this following your purchase of File Finder and then downloading the installation package. The File Finder recovery disk will start your PC using its proprietary miniature Windows operating system. You will know when the mini OS has completed loading as the File Finder splash screen will be present. Now, start the File Finder program from the start menu as was shown on the downloaded instructions. These are marked help and are included in your initial installation. Once you have started the File Finder recovery program on your PC simply choose from the drop down menu the drive or device in which you would like to search for your lost image files. Click on find files and the program will immediately search through the selected drive for any and all recoverable files. The list presented of recoverable files will include your lost images. Narrow down your list to only image files by using the search box sorting function and the selection “pictures”. Your recoverable file list will now only include image and picture files. If you know the file type your pictures were stored in such as a JPG, type that file extension into the search box directly and you can further refine your search.
