How do I recover deleted pictures from Compact Flash Drive?

[PamelaNorth]

I am looking for the data recovery tool to retrieve my deleted pictures from CF drive. How would I make sure if my picture format is supported? Please help me with 2-3 best software option.

What is/was the disk formatting of the flash drive itself?

For instance, if the format is FAT32 you could give this software a shot.

There are a few "recovery apps" out there designed to extract data from flash cards.

I've never needed any, myself.

I seem to remember the name, "PhotoRec" ...

You can try this Lexar recovery tool, never needed it but did try a test. It's free. http://www.lexar.com/support/downloads/
