Hi,

I have an External Hard Drive of 160GB I have used around 90GB of the space, the issue is every time I plug the hard drive to my pc, the pc recognizes the drive and the drive letter is also displayed but the files and folders are inaccessible

I need help to access those file.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi Jacob,

Would you be clearer and explain me as what exactly happening when you are trying to access the files? Is there any error message being displayed?

Hello Aiyana

Whenever I try to click on the file, it gives a message as access denied. I think the File system is corrupt, so the files are inaccessible.

What shall I do next?

Well, in your case I would suggest you to download the demo version of FAT or NTFS Data Recovery Software depending on the file system of your logical drives.

First use the demo version and evaluate the chances of recovery and then you can download the full version of the software, after purchasing it recover the complete data.
