A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

In case anyone is in a similar situation, I can't say enough good things about PhotoRec. It saved my ass more than once from hard drive recovery down to SD cards.

Yeah, yeah, it's command line only, but once you get your stuff back it's worth learning!
And it is not only command line. PhotoRec has a gui, only testdisk doesn't
I second this. I luckily never needed it myself but I saved the stuff of a few people over the years and it’s not one of those annoying „free“ apps.
