Windows Drive Photo & Video Recovery

My main Windows hard disk became corrupted while I was moving files from one folder to another using “cut.” The transfer froze, the disk is now unreadable, and I’ve lost a significant collection of photos and videos. I already tried a couple of consumer-level recovery tools without success, so the filesystem may have sustained deeper damage or the partition table could be compromised.

The goal is to retrieve every possible photo and video, preserve their original folder structure if it still exists, and avoid any further write activity on the drive. You may work with professional utilities such as R-Studio, UFS Explorer, or any hardware-level imaging tools; whatever you feel gives the highest chance of a safe, sector-by-sector recovery.

Deliverables
• A cloned image of the failing drive (read-only)
• Recovered photo/video files, clearly organised
• Brief report explaining what was rescued, what was unrecoverable, and the health status of the disk

I can ship the drive or, if you have a secure remote workflow that keeps the source disk in read-only mode, I’m open to that too. Confidentiality is essential because many of the videos are personal family memories. Let me know your proposed approach and any precautions you will take to keep the data intact during diagnosis and recovery.
