How to sort recovered pictures from memory card?
Some pictures are OK, but some have just good thumbnail, they can't be opened. Is it possible to divide "good" pictures from "bad" somehow? Some bad pictures have no thumbnail/EXIF, but some have thumbnail and EXIF so it's hard to divide them from good pictures. The only way is to manually view every picture. Or do you know a better way?
Thanks.

Hi Dreamer,
have you tried browsing the recovered photos in XnView with these settings:
What software did you use to undelete the files?

- Ignore read errors = activated (General » Read/Write » General)
- Use Embedded thumbnail = deactivated (Browser » Thumbnails » Appearance)
What software did you use to undelete the files?
- Electronic Evidence Information Center: Popular & Other Tools
- SourceForge: Digital Forensics Tool Testing Images » JPEG Search Test #1

Hi XnTriq,
thanks for the reply. This problem has been resolved already, but perhaps it will help to other users.
I did use old PC Inspector File Recovery, it worked well, most files have been recovered, even if they (it was not my card) were using that card few weeks after they lost the pictures, they didn't know they have been deleted.
Conclusion - there is probably no way to find 'bad' pictures. Perhaps a feature request - to sort - or find incomplete pictures?

Yes, but this just shows a part of the image, nothing else.have you tried browsing the recovered photos in XnView with these settings:
* Ignore read errors = activated (General » Read/Write » General)
This helps a bit, but it's still manual 'work'.* Use Embedded thumbnail = deactivated (Browser » Thumbnails » Appearance)
