Regardless of what virus your SD card infected with, they should be killed first. Generally, you will get back your lost files when finish killing the virus. But if you unfortunately lost the card files, then you need a powerful and easy to use card file recovery tool. For more information, read here: http://www.card-data-recovery.net/ Best wishes!

1. Open run (windows+R)
2. Open command prompt (type : cmd)
3. On the open box type -> chkdsk (space) [the drive]: (space) /f
example (your sdcard is on drive K -> chkdsk k: /f
4. It will say that it's being repaired , after that
5. Copy all files inside DCIM folder to your PC

you will find many files with FILE00XXX.CHK format. If your images are all JPEG, you can just change the .CHK file type into .JPG

But if you have the RAW file, it will be hard, because you don't know which one is the JPG/RAW file.

So you need to download this : http://www.ericphelps.com/uncheck/unchk3.zip

and this

http://download.microsoft.com/download/vb50pro/utility/1/win98/EN-US/Msvbvm50.exe

It will automatically change the files into JPGs and you change another .CHK files that haven't changed by the program into your RAW file format (Olympus = .ORF , etc)

Example :
There are 4 .CHK files :
FILE0001.CHK
FILE0002.CHK
FILE0003.CHK
FILE0004.CHK

if the result =
FILE0001.CHK
FILE0001.JPG
FILE0002.CHK
FILE0003.CHK
FILE0003.JPG
FILE0004.CHK

then the file002 and file004 is RAW:smile:

Hope this helps and don't be afraid when you have this problem! :smile:
