Hi
I am new to this forum but will welcome any help.
I keep all my work files on a external hard drive. I periodically sync that to a second hard drive which is kept else where for security. I must have messed with the settings because after syncing the two, I find that for some reason it has lost or erased a load of files from April to date. I have obviously done something absolutely stupid, but from April to now I have a lot of work lost.
My question: does anyone know if or how I can retrieve those lost files?

Many thanks in anticipation for any help, people!

Thanks for the heads up. Downloaded "DiscDigger" which is free. The only thing if you have a lot of files you have to wait 5 seconds between each file recovery. I paid the small price £14.00 for the full version so I didn't have to mess around.
Many thanks again.

Hi Zenju or whoever can help, I really need to restore my files before syncing and have followed the instruction described in, "https://freefilesync.org/faq.php#restore-files" Right now, I have zipped the dmp file. Will you or somebody at FFS help restore my files? How can I email the file to you? Thanks in advance, yuhlang
