These articles may be of help. The first one is about R-Undelete, but it's applicable to R-Photo, too.

Is this the correct tool? The recovered files aren't opening

Hello! I need to format my SD card because it reads "not recognised" and its from GoPro.
I thought it would be recovered because Windows Disk Manager shows a healthy partition.

Following a recommendation, I used R-Photo to generate an image file. After that, I ran a deep scan; all of the files were located, and their sizes and names appeared to be correct, giving the impression that the program had discovered authentic data.

But now that I've used the recovery, not a single file will play.

Is there something else I need to do? I know video files are sensitive; getting the "header" wrong will render them unreadable, but I still think all the bits should be present.

Would be very grateful for any advice!
