Can I recover deleted photos from Samsung galaxy on computer?

[Berequil]

Hi all.

Really confusing, I accidentally deleted precious photos from my Samsung galaxy phone, hoping to recover them. But having checked the junk folders inside my device and not found them. The deleted files might be stored there temporarily before being permanently deleted, but I didn't find them.

Is there any effective way to recover deleted photos on my Samsung galaxy on computer? I really need them.

Thank you.

If you have enabled Google Photos backup on your phone, you can log in to Google Photos and see if you can find the deleted photos. In the "Recycle Bin", there may be temporary files saved to help you recover deleted photos from Samsung Galaxy.

Download a file manager, such as ES File Explorer, and manually search for it. You may find photos that were not completely deleted, which can help you recover deleted photos from Samsung Galaxy.

1. Using a file manager to recover deleted photos is indeed a good method, and the steps are also simple:
2. Download the file manager: Search and download ES File Explorer or other similar file manager apps in the Google Play Store.
3. Open the app: After the installation is complete, open the file manager and enter the main interface.
4. Find the photo folder: In the file manager, find your picture folder, usually the DCIM or Pictures folder.
5. View hidden files: Turn on the "Show hidden files" option in the settings so that you can view files that may not be completely deleted.
6. Browse and find: Browse these folders carefully to see if there are any photos you need. Sometimes, deleted files may be kept in a hidden folder.
7. Recover photos: If you find the photos you need, you can long press the file and select "Recover" or "Copy" to the location you want.

This method does not require too complicated operations and is suitable for beginners. I hope it can help you find your lost photos!

If your photos are stored on an SD card, using data recovery software to recover them is an effective method. The steps are as follows to recover deleted photos from Samsung galaxy phone.

1. Remove the SD card: First, turn off your Samsung Galaxy phone and remove the SD card.
2. Insert the card reader: Insert the SD card into a USB card reader, and then connect the card reader to your computer.
3. Download data recovery software: Download a reliable data recovery software on your computer.
4. Launch the software: Install and open the data recovery software of your choice.
5. Select Scan: In the software interface, select your SD card as the scan target, and then click the "Scan" button.
6. Wait for Scan: The software will start scanning the SD card for deleted photos. This process may take several minutes, depending on the size of the SD card and the amount of data.
7. Preview and Recover: After the scan is complete, you can view the found files. Find the photos you want to recover, select them, and then click the "Recover" button. Choose a safe location to save these photos (it is best not to put them back on the SD card to avoid overwriting the original data).

This way you have a higher chance of recovering deleted photos, especially if the data on the SD card has not been overwritten. Hope this helps!

After deleting photos from Samsung galaxy, make sure you don't take new pics or save new files until you've attempted recovery. Each new file saves over the deleted ones, making recovery much trickier. Avoid downloading sketchy recovery software to recover deleted photos from Samsung galaxy. I've found some to be full of bloatware or worse, malware!

Many Android devices like Samsung come with built-in photo management app called Gallery, which includes a "Trash" feature. When you delete photos from Android phone, they are not permanently removed; instead, they are moved to the Trash, where they remain accessible for a 30-day period. During this time, you can easily recover any deleted photos from Samsung phone by navigating to the Trash, selecting the images you want to recover, and then choosing the "Restore" option.

If you are using a different gallery app or haven’t backed up your photos to a service like Google Photos, recovery options might be more limited and may involve using third-party data recovery software. However, such tools typically require a computer and may not guarantee success, especially if the deleted data has been overwritten. Therefore, the most effective way to recover deleted images is through built-in features or cloud backups.

@BerequilChoosing the best photo recovery software for Samsung phone can be a crucial step in restoring lost memories and important images. With the abundance of options available, it's essential to evaluate various factors that can impact the effectiveness and reliability of the software.

Key considerations include the software's compatibility with your specific Android device, its ability to recover a wide range of file types, and the user interface's ease of use. Additionally, check for features such as preview options, which allow you to view recoverable files before initiating the restoration process.

Another important aspect is the software's reputation and user reviews. Look for Samsung photo recovery software that have positive feedback regarding their recovery success rates and customer support. It’s also wise to consider whether the software offers a free trial or a demo version, allowing you to assess its capabilities without financial commitment. Lastly, ensure that the software prioritizes data security, safeguarding your files during the recovery process and minimizing the risk of further data loss.

Recovering deleted photos from your Samsung Galaxy's "Trash" feature is pretty convenient for a quick fix, but doing it through a computer has its downsides.
If the photos you deleted are still on the device for 30 days, that's cool and all. But if you're trying to recover those on a computer, it can turn into a long process. You'll need to navigate multiple steps and might have to deal with various software options if you're using third-party recovery tools. Honestly, it can get frustrating real quick!
