3 Ways You Could Recover Your Lost Files If You Accidentally Damage Your USB Flash Drive

USB flash drives are wonderful little things! They are small enough to fit into your pocket and you can take them with you anywhere you want and anywhere in the world. But they do have a bad side to! They are pretty easy to damage.

There are lots and lots of ways that you can damage your portable pen drive, you could leave them in your jeans pocket and then make the mistake of running your jeans through the wash (I have been guilty of this myself but luckily no harm came to my USB drive!) or you could drop it down the toilet,or even accidentally bend or break them. Lets face it these USB flash devices are great little things, but you do have to wrap them in cotton wool if you want your files or photos to be safe!

If you have damaged your USB flash device and desperately want to get your files recovered then there are a few options out there that just might be able to do the job, of course with damaged flash drives there are no guarantees that you will be able to recover your lost files, but anyway here are the three things you can do to recover your lost data.

1) Use USB data recovery freeware software

2) Buy a professional USB data recovery software

3) Pay for a USB data recovery service

Those are your three options above, the freeware option is probably the best to start out with just in case you are able to recover your documents without having to spend money on professional software! If that does not work then you could go down the paid software route, but if that does not work and the files are important to you then the only alternative is to use a USB data recovery service to recover your lost files for you.
