Remove deprecated 'corruption' and 'recovery' tags.

And if the card was just left in the laptop card reader (i.e. forgotten about the card, or the card was only there as a sort of "storage case") then the card could've been imaged along with the rest of the HDD, depending on the settings used by the imaging software | |

| Nov 8, 2012 at 0:36 | comment | added | OMA | Thanks for your answers. Well, it seems we got lucky, and after lots of tries in the PC, my sister put the SD card back in the camera and it miraculously started working again! Not only that, but then she put it again in the PC and all pictures were readable!!! I can't understand what's happened here. How can a card go back from 100% bad sectors to 100% readable?? WTF?! | |

| Nov 1, 2012 at 0:46 | comment | added | Max | Funny story. I once had an SD card corrupted, losing all my photos. I tried a lot of software to get them back, free and paid. Nothing worked. For two or three years I thought they were gone forever. Until one day the police imaged my laptop, and miraculously recovered all the photos. Every single one. I think it was AccessData they used. | |

It's a demo version with restrictions, not free
