Couldn't Time Machine serve your needs? Recuva restores deleted files on your HDD, right? Assuming you've used Time Machine for quite some time, you should be able to find an older backup with the file that may have been deleted.

Let's assume he's lost photos on an SD card......

Anyhow, in all honesty, the very very best program I found so far is a windows program: PhotoRescue Advanced (or Pro, if you want).

It really digs what all other programs wouldn't be able to see anymore for me at least twice.

Using nothing less... I'd even setup a virtual machine just to be able to run that baby.

That having said, I'd try going to iusethis.com and searching something like "recover" or "restore" and maybe add "photo" if that is your specific wish.

Sort by usage or so and pick a few apps, google them.

That's not an alternative to this thread, hence I don't wanna see it getting closed or so haha, just saying, that whilst waiting for good answers you can feed your inner wish to "do something" about it :)

Thanks for the response. Yeah it's from an SD Card. Is that Photo Rescue free?

    • Detective game 'The Operator' is free to claim on the Epic Games Store this week

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Detective game 'The Operator' is free to claim on the Epic Games Store this week by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Epic Games Store's weekly giveaways promotion has just refreshed. Last week's offer of Two Point Hospital has now gone away, and to take its place, the store has brought in The Operator, a detective puzzle game developed by Bureau 81. As always, you have seven days to add the latest game permanently to your Epic Games Store library. Released in 2024, The Operator comes touting an investigation story that puts you into the shoes of a new hire at the Federal Department of Intelligence (FDI), where you are tasked with analyzing evidence, fact-checking, and solving a streak of mysterious crimes using the agency's advanced investigative software. Everything from murders and missing people to cyberattacks are the sort of crimes you'll be investigating throughout the game, all using the agency's unique software console to dig through evidence and personal data. As the story progresses, a conspiracy also comes through from another hacker that paints the FDI in a different light. Here's how the studio teases the hacker's existence even in the game description: The Operator giveaway on the Epic Games Store is now active, and it will last until June 26. When it's not on sale, the game costs $13.99 to purchase, but PC gamers can add it to their library for no cost during the seven-day timeframe. Another PC game will come in as the next freebie on the same day that this entry expires.
