“Hi there! My GoPro studio automatically imports new files while camera is connected to the computer. Last time I didn’t need to import files in GoPro Studio. So I stopped the auto import and it prompted me to maintain or delete the files. I was trying to delete only the imported files, but ended up damaging all my photos and videos on the memory card. Tried to restore with a number of online tools but to no avail. Files are still on the card (size- corrected) but it’s impossible to play them.”
“I went to Lake Tahoe. I took many photos and a few videos using my GO Pro HERO 3 Black with a recently purchased SanDisk 64GB micro SD.

I’ve used several data recovery programs but I can’t seem to recover them. Does anyone have any tips on how to recover the additional files?”
GoPro cameras are popular for capturing aerial shots and high-quality videos. From skydiving to rock-climbing, these cameras accompany you on adventures of all sorts.
