- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos OK to edit
I feel so lost right now. I had all my photos backed up on an external hard drive. My dad bought me a bigger one for Xmas, and I was going to give the old hard drive to my husband to use once I transferred everything. Well hubby decided that he didn't want to wait for me and tried transferring everything by himself. Long story short he deleted 6,000 of my photos including all of the weddings I have shot and all of the portraits. He then proceeded to put his stuff on the hard drive effectively killing any chance of getting those files back. I tried 2 different data recovery programs, and it found the file names, but wouldn't open the files. I cried...a lot. That is my entire portfolio from the last 2 years...
Has this happened to anyone and were you able to get anything back? I have a program that is going to try and get stuff out of his recycle bin since he cleared that out after too, but I don't know if that will work.
UGHHHHHH Horrible way to start the new year.
