How to recover files from USB drive for free?
I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I recently plugged in my SanDisk 512GB Ultra USB 3.0 Flash Drive on my Windows 11 PC, and to my surprise, dozens of photos that were stored on it have suddenly gone missing. I’m not sure what happened. One day the photos were there, and the next day they were just... gone. I’ve searched the drive thoroughly and tried different computers, but no luck. It’s like the files vanished without a trace. Are there any free tools or methods that can help me recover the lost files from this USB drive? Thank you! (I had previously used this USB as a bootable drive a while ago, but later reformatted it and started using it to store personal files)Emoji Icon Popup 🫶
Just updated to running Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 27858. 🥳 I saw the new emoji icon on my task bar, when I clicked on it, the emoji icon disappeared. After a reboot, it's now showing the instruction popup. I will reboot again & might get the emoji icon's popup I am looking for. Super-handy emoji icon feature by Windows, I appreciate it. 👏How to recover SD card after format?
HELP!!! A few days ago, I accidentally deleted some important photos and videos from my Samsung SD card while trying to transfer them to my Windows 11 laptop. I thought the transfer was complete, so I formatted the card to free up space—but later realized that not everything was copied over. And stupidly, I didn’t make any backups. I did try using Windows File Recovery, and it did recover some files—but unfortunately, most of them won’t open properly. The recovered photos seem corrupted, and the videos won’t play at all. Not sure if I used the right settings, or if the files are just too far gone. Is there any free recovery software for Windows that actually works with SD cards? If not, I’m okay with using a paid tool. Really appreciate any help or suggestions!

Hello, I've just installed Windows 11 build 22581 from the Windows Insider Beta channel last night. Since then, my Logitech Brio camera stop working. My Logitech Brio was configured on my computer for Windows Hello facial authentication, so I'm sure it was working just fine before the update since I use it each time I'm logging in. I've tested the camera on antoher compter, it works fine. I've updated the camera to the latest firmware on this other computer just in case, but it doesn't help. Back on my main computer, the camera still appears in the Device Manager, but the device is not accessible from apps like the Camera app. I've tried the uninstall the device, then perform a scan to add it back in. The device is added but is not working... When I try the "Restore driver" option, it says that "the driver is not build for this plateform" Finally, I've tried to switch from the Beta to the Dev channel, just in case a fix was already available. But this seems not to be the case. So here I am Thanks in advance for you help.How to fix activation issue on Windows 11?
