I noticed about 3 weeks ago that a bunch (not all) of my picture and video files are gone!! The folders I had them arranged in are still there, but there is nothing in them. I have been loosing my mind trying to figure out the problem. I have requested the assistance of 3 of my good computer buddies and nothing. I recently purchased DiskInternals Uneraser and it seems it found my old pictures from one folder, but not from the new path I had been using for about 3 months. I am extremely upset. Can anyone please help me to recover my files???? I already ran the please read before posting section and followed all directions. PLEASE, PLEASE can anyone help me?????

Is it possible to extract the files from the thumbs.db file???


Here are my requested logs:
