Today, I went to the home of my friend and he showed me an 8 GB pen drive which was full of images, documents and movies
but after plugging it in computer and opening it, there were nothing in
it. Although through properties, I could see that 80% of the pen drive was full andantivirus also was showing that files were being scanned by it, but after opening the drive, it didn't show anything in it. Then I tried to view the files using
DIR command in command prompt but there also, it was reported empty. My
friend was so worried because it he had stored his college documents and some important photos in it. He asked me to find a solution and get the files back, so I applied a small trick and within 2 minutes, his files came back and were visible in the drive.
