So, now without any further ado, Let’s get started
Recover deleted files and photos from Android internal memory
- First of all download and install the free software(FORecovery) to your windows system from here. There are lots of available tools to recover deleted data but FORecovery for Android is the best software to recover photos and other deleted files from the android phone.
- Next, open Settings>About Phone>Device Information and there you will find your build number. Repeatedly tap the build number for 10 times until it says “You have enabled the developer mode”
- Then go back to Settings, there you will find a new tab named “Developer options” click on it and enable USB Debugging
- Once this is done, run the toolkit and then connect your Android smartphone to your PC using a USB cable. Select the data recovery option and proceed to the next step.
- Then select the specific type of files that you want to be recovered. By default, all types of file will be selected but it’s a very time-consuming process. So, if you want this process to be fast and effective select only desired types of files to be recovered.
- And now you will be prompted to choose Advanced or Standard Scan. There it depends on what type of file you want to be recovered. Standard scanning will carry out the task faster, but it may not give you the results that you will be looking for. Whereas in an advanced search, it may take more time but should give you a higher chance of success.
- When you are done with the above steps, proceed by clicking “start”. This starts the recovery process.
- Once the scanning is completed, the recovered data is displayed and you can get a better view through the preview catalog. Once you have found your lost file, click “recover” and it will be saved on your PC.

After recovering data from the internal storage of your Android device here is how you can do your SD card recovery.
Simply follow the steps below to recover your lost data from SD card:-
- Launch your FORecovery toolkit and select the Data recovery option. Select SD card recovery at the bottom section of the program
- Then connect your SD card to your PC through a card reader or your smartphone through a USB cable.
- Select the SD card icon that appears and click continue right after the SD card is detected.
- Then select the scanning technique; standard or advanced depending on your preference(I discussed about these two types of scan above). And then click next to proceed.
- Once scanning is done, select a category and view its contents. This will allow you to select the files to be recovered and then you are safe to click “Recover” in order to save them.
