When scanning for known file types, R-Studio may find quite bizarre files. The best way to understand how much they are important is to preview them.
But files found in the main folders/files are better to recover, generally they are the original lost files.

No, nothing wrong. Sometimes R-Studio may find wrong files among Extra Found Files. That is why scanning for known file types (or raw file search) is a less reliable file recovery algorithm.
You may even try to preview those files. Most likely unsuccessfully. But don't worry, that does not affect chances for file recovery.

R-Studio is scanning my drive and is finding all these tiny sized mpg files? Lots of them, and putting them in my Extra Found Files Folder? Wat are these? I didnt have these on my drive, is there something wrong?
