Recover Lost Photos with NTShare Photo Recovery: Step-by-Step Guide

How to Use NTShare Photo Recovery to Restore Deleted Images Quickly

1. Prepare and do not add new files

  • Stop using the storage device (SD card, USB drive, hard drive) where the images were deleted to avoid overwriting.
  • If possible, remove the device and connect it to a separate computer as a secondary drive.

2. Download and install NTShare Photo Recovery

  • Download the installer from NTShare’s official site.
  • Install to a different drive than the one you’re recovering from (e.g., install to C: if recovering from D: or an external card) to prevent overwriting deleted files.

3. Launch the program and choose the drive

  • Open NTShare Photo Recovery.
  • Select the target device or partition that contained the deleted images.

4. Select scan type

  • Use Quick Scan first for recently deleted files (faster).
  • If Quick Scan doesn’t find what you need, run Deep Scan (slower but more thorough; searches file signatures).

5. Filter and preview results

  • Use built-in filters to show only image formats (JPG, PNG, RAW, TIFF, etc.).
  • Preview thumbnails or file previews to verify image integrity before recovery.

6. Recover files safely

  • Select the images you want to restore.
  • Click Recover and choose a different destination drive than the source to save recovered files.
  • Keep recovered files organized into folders and verify they open correctly.

7. If recovery fails

  • Re-run Deep Scan with different file-signature options.
  • Try alternative recovery software if necessary.
  • For physically damaged devices, consider professional data-recovery services.

8. Post-recovery: backup and prevention

  • Immediately back up recovered photos to cloud storage or an external drive.
  • Enable regular backups and consider using file-versioning tools to prevent future loss.

Tips

  • Recover as soon as possible; the sooner you act, the higher the chance of success.
  • For camera SD cards, use a card reader instead of connecting the camera directly.
  • Keep software updated for improved file-signature support.
