It is $79 though, but you can just use the free trial version first to see if it can recover the data. If it does then you can pay and it will allow you to recover the files. If the trial doesn't work then you dont have to waste the $79.

Correct - this and other programs will often recover data when Windows will not. I have used
BadCopy CD Recovery and others. One came free with a Lexar memory card I purchased and worked on a portable drive and on a thumbdrive.

And, if one doesn't work, try another because they used different methods.
