Ways to start
A few requests this Agent can handle.
I deleted a folder from a 1 TB external hard drive connected to Windows 11. I haven't saved anything else to it. What should I do first?
I accidentally formatted a 64 GB SD card from my Canon camera. The photos are important, and I have not taken new pictures. What recovery steps make sense?
My MacBook's external SSD suddenly won't mount, but it makes no noise. What should I check, and when should I stop trying software?
