There are different reasons why we accidentally delete or format are priceless media including digital photos , pictures , and images. Some people will format a camera card by mistake when trying to delete only one image. This is the number one reason for image loss that I have seen to date. Another very common way we loose are digital pictures or photos is when are computer has a virus and we are forced to format the hard drive to rid the machine of the virus. Fortunately these digital photos , pictures , or images are not lost forever. Formatting the memory card or hard drive only asigns free space for writing but does not deleted the old pictures. As long as you do not write over the lost data with a lot of new stuff these digital images are still on the sd card or computer drive and can be recovered by using special recovery software.
