Sony USB 4GB Stick Slows Computer

But essentially you'll boot to either PartedMagic or this Windows PE Rescue ISO (link) and try some of their utilities for copying/recovering data. Keep in mind these are POWERFUL utilities so don't go digging or messing with stuff you don't understand.
I recommend starting with GetDataBack for whatever file system your flash drive is and going from there.
I ended up using Hiren's BootCD PE which is free instead of PartedMagic and one of the data recovery utilities, Lazesoft Data Recovery, was able to transfer the videos after 24 hours of waiting! Way longer than I expected but I have them! My mom is so happy about it so thank you for the help. If anyone reads this and is in the same boat try it out. I used their USB Booting program to create a OS to boot from on a spare USB stick and it worked perfectly.
