Hi Kevin, have you tried Recuva by Piriform?
It's a small easy to use program that's suppose to help to recover files
from damaged drives.
I have used it in the past with success, but I haven't in awhile.
Here is a link to download it.

what's there to clarified, it's a flash drive memory stick.I run my fingers
up and down the stick it's as smooth as a babies bottom except for the
printed text from the manufacture which I cannot read. I put the stick into
my computer and jaws said format the drive. I've had this stick for four
years. awhile ago it did the same thing but I was able to get the documents
on my netbook. this time jaws announces in order to use this drive you must
format it.

Agreed. It would help if Kevin clarified, but yes, I was referring to an SD
card, and as Maria realized, it seems Kevin wasn't.

I think you guys are referring to a SD card, aren't you? Kevin's subject
says flash drive, which is the same as a thumb drive which I don't think has
such a slider. If I am incorrect I would appreciate further
clarification.Norma

Maria,
Thank you for the word 'switch," which is much more descriptive than my
"button." I don't use a fingernail to move the switch. Instead, I locate the
gap with the tip of my finger, then run my finger fairly hard against that
side. You can tell when the switch moves.
As for your apology, if there's any terminology confusion, I'm afraid I
caused it.

You can disregard my previous message, as the switch I'm talking about is on
flash cards not thumb drives.

The switch for write protection is very hard to find actually. It is
in one of the cut-outs on the drive and can usually be found and slid
with fingernails, which I don't have because I bite them.

Kevin, the message doesn't fit, but maybe confirm that you haven't
accidentally right-protected the card. There's a slot toward the end
on one side where a button sometimes gets pushed to the
right-protected end. You push or slide this button (for want of a
better word) in the opposite direction. Again, the message doesn't
seem to match this possibility, but it's simple to test.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] flash drive
recently I inserted my flash drive into my computer and jaws
announced format drive. the flash drive is formatted and it has
documents on it. I inserted it into another port on the computer and
got the same thing. I then inserted it into my netbook, still I got
the same thing.
I have some important documents on this flash drive is there a way to
recover them? I'm running windows 10 anniversary with jaws latest >>
build.
Email is golden!!!
