Video

Recuva is designed for recover deleted files, has a pleasant look, simple and ascetic interface, immediately after installation suggested data recovery

I have 2 in the hospital windows 7 one for experiments :), so after a failed experiment, I deleted the system files (standard system file recovery did not help), and the system did not function properly because of this, I decided to try it anyway, although I honestly did not hope for success, since the program is free, and it is intended for file recovery another plan, it is unlikely that something will work out, I thought, but still continued to follow the instructions of this program

About system files as you can see nothing is said, but no, no, I continued, I still don’t lose anything, although it is possible that there were some interesting pictures, or the video can be restored, I chose drive C on which the system is installed, as you can see in the screenshot below it is possible recover files from a flash drive but we're not talking about that ...

As you can see, I didn't bother too much and started with data recovery the program started searching for deleted files on the entire disk

It took me about 15 minutes, during which time the program had to scan the dick and find deleted files, at the end of the scanning process, the flashing icon reminded me of the completed task and I opened the program

As you can see, there are a lot of files - there were lost , these files were marked in red, that's exactly what I needed to restore by selecting them all, I clicked on " recover data"Waited for completion and decided to switch to the" broken "system to see if it would function normally or not ... No, everything remained the same, only photos and unnecessary video were recovered and some other documents, apparently I erased the system specifically)))

Conclusion: You can try file recovery from a flash drive, but not system data.

Convenient free file recovery software (photo, video, music), as well as documents and archives from flash drives for phones and cameras and other gadgets using drives, quickly, simply, conveniently, although not everything can be restored, preferably in hot pursuit, use the program, if deleted, formatted a thousand times this program, and others are unlikely to help. And know that file recovery is better done immediately and not after half a year :)

Problems with smartphones are quite common. They are caused by many reasons that are not always user-dependent. There are also software bugs. Why does 7-Data Android Recovery not see my phone? What kind of program is this? How to work with it correctly? The answers to these questions are presented in the article.

Program

So, 7-Data Android Recovery is a program that was Russified not so long ago. You need it to recover data from a smartphone on the Android operating system. If, through your fault or due to software failures, personal data was lost, in order to restore it, you need just such an application. The interface is intuitive, so you shouldn't have any problems returning your photos.

Beginning of work

Before understanding why 7-Data Android Recovery does not see the phone, what to do in this case and what are the reasons for this problem, let's look at how the program works. You can download and install the application from the official website. You will also find the PC version here. If any data has been lost from your computer, 7-Data Recovery Suite will help you recover it.

It is in this application that there is a special section for Android devices. The operation of both utilities is almost identical, at least in terms of the mechanism.

Preparing your phone

To try to recover lost photos, you need to connect your smartphone to your computer via USB. As practice shows, it is advisable to immediately disable USB debugging in the device. Sometimes users forget about this operation, then there may be a problem that 7-Data Android Recovery does not see the phone.

Let's go to the settings. Here you need to find the line "For developers". It also has a USB debugging function. You may not find such a section, for this you will need to configure it.

Connection

So, you have connected your smartphone via cable. You need to open the program. A simple menu will appear in front of you, in which everything is clearly indicated and described. There are recommendations here that need to be followed. This refers to USB debugging and connecting via a device cable. Then you need to click "Next" to continue the configuration.

Before you will be a list of drives that are on the smartphone. There may be a section for internal memory and external storage. If you do not have a memory card, then there will be one section. You need to select it and click "Next". The choice of the desired partition depends on where the files disappeared from.

Then the program starts scanning the device. Upon completion of this process, the utility points to the lost, deleted, damaged files. The list may be empty if, after all, the device has irrevocably destroyed documents. There may be a huge number of folders, among which you need to search for the necessary one.

If you find a file or folder, click on it and click "Save". If several files have been lost, you can put a tick in front of each and save again. After that, you will have to specify the folder where you want to restore the found data. It is recommended that you send them to your PC and not your smartphone.

Mistake

But the above instruction is suitable for those who were able to connect the device. What if 7-Data Android Recovery can't see your phone? This can be caused by many errors. But most often this is due to the fact that the computer itself does not want to detect the smartphone.

This is a common problem. There are many solutions, as well as reasons. Maybe the wire is corny, or maybe there is an error in the PC system itself.

Debugging

This is one of the common options that occurs when 7-Data Android Recovery does not see the Lenovo phone. Some users miss the point that they need to enable USB debugging. This process makes it possible to indicate to our computer that we want to turn on the device in a special mode.

Depending on which OS revision, you need to approach the setting of this mode differently. If you have Android 2.3, then in the settings you need to go to the "Applications" section and find the "Development" line there. In later versions, the option "Developer options" appeared right in the settings.

Starting with a newer version of the OS, you need to go to the settings on the line "About phone". Here we are looking for "Build number". This line is not active, but we can click on it. You need to do this several times, as practice shows, about seven clicks. Below you will see information that you have become a developer. Now the "Developer options" line will appear in the settings.

On newer operating systems, this menu may also be found in Accessibility. Here you will have to search in the settings for different tabs.

Modes

7-Data Android Recovery does not see your LG phone because you set the wrong connection mode. Some users connect a smartphone and see that it just starts charging. Of course, sometimes this is due to malfunctions of the device itself, but most often the wrong connection is selected.

You need to go to the settings and find there the menu for connecting a device via USB. Depending on the phone model, you will also have to look for this item. For example, Meizu hid this item in "About phone" - "Memory". Quite illogical, especially for those who have previously used other models.

There are four modes in this menu. You need to use "Connect as Media Device (MTP)".

USB

7-Data Android Recovery utility does not see Samsung phone if there are some connection problems. This is the first thing to check. Maybe the cable is just damaged, or maybe the problem is in the connector.

To do this, try changing the wire and connecting through other ports. If the program sees the smartphone, then the problem is clear. If not, move on.

Drivers

The computer, and accordingly the 7-Data Android Recovery utility, does not see the Sony phone, because the drivers for USB controllers, or rather, for a smartphone, are outdated. To check all this, you need to go to the "Device Manager". In front of us in the window will appear all connected devices to our PC. We are looking for controllers, and in them our connected device.

You need to click on it and select "Properties". We are looking for the “Driver” tab at the top, go to it and click “Update”. If there are drivers on the PC itself, you can manually specify the path to them. If they are not there, then run an automatic search.

Additional options

There are even less likely reasons for such a mistake, but still they should also be excluded. As practice shows, perhaps it is a matter of full memory. You can try cleaning and deleting unnecessary files. Perhaps the system is busy with third-party processes and simply does not allow you to connect to the PC.

If 7-Data Android Recovery does not see your phone, there is an option that the utility does not support your device model. Unfortunately, this sometimes happens, especially with already outdated models. If so, you can find other analogs of the application on the Internet. For example, Android Data Recovery is a good option. The utility is almost a copy of 7-Data Android Recovery.

It recovers data, finds lost files, returns incorrectly deleted ones. The program works with the Android operating system. Due to the fact that the interface of this utility is just as simple and straightforward, working with it will not cause any difficulties.

But remember that you shouldn't forget about the USB Debugging mode here either. Despite the fact that many neglect this instruction, errors and failures will occur without it. Therefore, first configure this mode. Then connect your smartphone to your PC.

After starting the program, it will be immediately clear whether she sees your phone or not. There is another option - to connect the device via a wireless interface via Wi-Fi.

conclusions

If you have lost any data, you can still restore it using similar programs. The question is: what to do if they can't see the phone. Then you have to sit for an hour or two to sort out the problem and find out whether the wire is just damaged, or the smartphone is not working correctly, or you are doing something wrong.

7 Data Android Recovery is currently the most popular data recovery software for Android smartphones. However, it does not work correctly for all users. In some cases, software at all. What if the program doesn't want to work properly? In this guide, we will try to figure out why 7 Data Android Recovery does not see the phone and how you can fix this problem.

Causes of the problem and their solution

The program may not detect your smartphone or tablet for one of several reasons. It all depends on the type of device used to connect the equipment, as well as the settings of the operating system.

Below is a list of the reasons why a connection problem may occur and how to solve them:

1. Disabled USB debugging

This is probably the most common problem. It is easy to solve, you just need to. To do this, go to the Android phone settings and find the "For Developers" section there, it will contain the "USB Debugging" item.



2. Smartphone is not on standby

As strange as it may sound, in some cases, enabling the phone lock helps to solve the problem with the definition.

3. The drivers for connecting the smartphone have not been updated

Outdated or uninstalled drivers for device identification in Windows system may cause the 7 Data Android Recovery program to malfunction. To try to fix the situation, download the latest drivers from the website of the smartphone / tablet manufacturer or update yourself via the device manager.

4. Incorrect operation of the computer USB driver

Check if all drivers on the system are up to date. It often happens that to use some USB connectors on the motherboard, you need to install an additional driver (for example, this often happens if the 3.0 standard is used on a laptop).



5. Wrong connection mode

Please note that the smartphone must be connected in storage mode, not tethering or charging. In these modes, the program will not be able to see the SD card.



6. The phone is not rooted

Even if debug mode is activated and disk drive mode is enabled, recovery is impossible without obtained root rights (since by default the user cannot make changes to the file system). You can find out more about how to get these rights on your device on specialized forums.

In some cases, there may be problems in the operation of the USB cable, due to which any file transfer operations, as well as work with the device through programs on a PC, become impossible. The phone simply won't be visible to your PC. Only replacing the cable with a new one or connecting a memory card through a card reader will help here.

Conclusion

If all possible causes of the problem described above are excluded, and the program still does not want to detect the device, it may not be supported. In this case, you can try using an older version of the program or one of its analogues.

Piriform's Recuva program is one of the best tools for recovering deleted data (for example, after formatting or damaging removable drives). By the way, Piriform has made another good program - Speccy, we have it.

You can download Recuva for free on the official website. There is also a paid version (as of February 2018, its cost is 800 rubles), but it does not provide serious advantages. When installing, do not forget to select Russian and refuse to install CCleaner:

How to recover data with Recuva

If the files were simply deleted, Recuva will find them without any problems and offer to restore them:

If your drive has been formatted, and in other difficult cases, Recuva will offer you to do an in-depth analysis - agree. It can take quite a long time, depending on the size of the disk:

After the end of the search, click the "Switch to advanced mode" button, you will see something like this:

There can be quite a few items, because Recuva will find files and folders that have been deleted long ago. You can sort files by type, size or location. It remains only to select the necessary files and click the "Restore ..." button.
