Helpful Advice: What to Do (and Not Do) with Corrupted Files
If you encounter a corrupted file, your immediate actions are critical to the success of a future recovery.
What to Do Immediately:
-
Stop Using the Device: If you suspect the drive has bad sectors, stop writing new data immediately. Continued use can overwrite the very data fragments needed for repair.
-
Check for Hidden Backups: Look for Recover” versions or temporary files that the software might have created.
-
Copy (Don’t Move): If the file is on a USB, try to copy it to your desktop. If the copy fails with the drive has physical damage.
What NOT to Do:
-
Do Not Run “CHKDSK” or Repair Utilities: Tools like CHKDSK are designed to fix the file system, not the file content. They often delete corrupted file fragments to “clean” the drive, making professional recovery impossible.
-
Do Not Keep Re-opening the File: Each failed attempt to open a corrupted file in its native application can lead to further header corruption.
-
Avoid Online “Free” Repair Sites: Many free online repair tools are insecure and often fail to handle complex binary repairs, potentially exposing your sensitive data to third parties.
