How to Recover Data From a Dead Computer

glad i found this, i can now get my game data back thanks to your vid, cheers.

I am. But it isn’t working. When I plug in my hard drive, no files showing “user” or any of those folders show. It shows different folders, like “android .” What does this mean ?😊

I bought the Kit and my folder in hard drive is empty. Not sure what happened

Nice,thanks:)

i did everything here and the users folder is empty but the public folder had items in it but not the data i want to recover

This video is so helpful!! I can't wait to get home and do this with my old laptop so I can recover some old documents and pictures from my old laptop which I had for four years.

Laptop SATA Hard Drive Enclosure and the Laptop IDE Hard Drive Enclosure links listed in the description are no longer available on amazon. Can you recommend substitutes please?

How many people are watching in 2024

Thank you Sir

Thanks worked on my sons old computer.

WOW I have an old Dell Inspiron laptop that ran on Win XP that I would love to get the files off of! I'm going to give this a try.

I just watched this video but still super helpful!!

Does this work for MacBook Pro?

I have a computer desktop that’s old it keep saying disk boot failure not sure what bios it takes to boot it up with can you help

can u save desktop files over?

i still can't make work , my good computer doesn't recognize the hard drive H

Thanks 🙏

Not sure if you will see this since it’s old vid,but when I connect the hard drive. It says local disk but it doesn’t show the space in it? And it makes my computer very slow when I go into files? Is my disk broken or is there still a way to fix my old hard drive to get some old memories?

I can't find any videos on how to recover files from an internal drive for a PC. My pc won't start. It does not have a hard drive.

Where’s the links to purchase?

Do you need the password from the old hard drive to retrieve information

Once you remove it is it completely out of dead lab top/ desk top?

No one carries an assault weapon. People commit assaults with firearms.

I'll add my thanks to you as well. Files that were kept on my 'desktop area' weren't transferred. Should they have been?

He didnt say where to go to order the parts to do it yourself

Love this video. Have 2 unused computer that have some files. Maybe unneeded but I now know how to check.Thanks again for this information.

Can I attach an external hard drive to the laptop hard drive to retrieve data?

Thank you so much for your help! You are so amazing at explaining this and I really appreciate it! Saved me a lot of money doing this myself!

what to do if your drive is an SSD card? Thank you

when I try to open my user it asks for permission and I give to and then it sits for ever like it is searching forever. Going Crazy because I need those files. Most are are on one drive but I have been capture how videos and they are on my SSD.

This just happened to us. I assume all these steps are still valid if the working computer uses Windows 10?

That's amazing. Needed to recover a ton of files from an initial Windows 8 machine that was TOTALLY dead and has been for years. Followed this vid with no expectations and now I have everything . Thank you!

What if the working computer that I’m using doesn’t have anywhere near the hard drive or ram space I had on the dead computer? Can I still transfer everything over and then transfer it into an external Harddrive?

I don't see the "kit" listed. There is one universal cable and 4 enclosures listed. I would like the kit, for NOW and for future use. THANK YOU for this video!

This info's still relevant in 2022. Many thanks.

Nice video sir. i myself recovered file from dead / broken laptop with very simple steps and i released a report on HOW I DID IT ON MY PROFILE

Does this work with a “failing” hard drive? Or a “failed” drive?

Hi,
This video is awesome! What hard drive enclosure should I use for a HP computer?

DOES THIS EQUIPMENT WORK WITH MAC ALSO?

I have two old towers from 2 old desk top computers. Can you tell me how to remove the hard drive from these?

You are amazing thank you!

SSLFamilyDad, where do I get this power supply to power the busted/dead hard disk?

SSLFamilyDad, I apologize for asking this stupid question, but can I do what you've shown in the video with the dead hard drive of my Lenovo ThinkPad laptop, and only with SATA cables (which I have now)?

Thanks a lot bro!
My Thesis was in my old Laptop
I thought I was done for 💀

my dead computer is a vista laptop... if i take it out from the laptop and run it as an external hard drive in windows 10 - will it detect?

I can t see both partition from my broken laptop . I can t see the partition with programs. ( C ) do you know why ?

I greatly appreciate this video. What my problem is that when I hook up all of the connections to transfer data from an old hard drive (desktop 3.5 in compac). When I look on the windows file, I do not see the computer recognizing the new drive of the drive I have “hooked” up to the laptop. How do I get the laptop to recognize the HDD so I can transfer the files to the laptop?

Do I NEED the enclosure? I'm just planning on transferring the information and then putting the hard drive back in the old computer.

Isn't it easier to just put the hard drive on an enclosure?
