I need to recover data from a corrupted MicroSD card

[AleksanderK]

I'm looking for software that could recover data (about 40 gigabytes) from my corrupted MicroSD card. If there's any way to do it without specialized software, that would be nice too. I am mainly looking for free of charge options, but I guess I will have to consider paid services as well if all else fails. Thank you.

How is it corrupted? Is there read/write errors on the media or is it all filesystem level?

 

Did you make an image?

 

What filesystem?

 

What types of files are you trying to recover?

It's a card that used to be in my Galaxy S8. I'm trying to recover photos and videos that were recorded on that same phone. I don't know how it got corrupted, it worked fine, then I took it out of the phone, because it had to be repaired. For about a day I put that card in an older phone so that I wouldn't lose it. After I got my S8 back I put the card back into it and it became corrupted. I didn't make an image and I don't really know what filesystem is used there

How much do you care about these photos? Id probably pay for a datarecovery service to take a look if its important to you. Otherwise, make a image with ddrescue and start searching the image with something like photrec.
