Locate Missing Photo Folders Windows

Job ID: 40353045

Budget: $250 – $750 USD

I need someone who can comb through a Windows 11 desktop that currently houses three internal drives—the active system disk plus two older drives migrated from previous PCs—to track down several photo folders that have vanished from view. The search is strictly for photos, most of which were saved in RAW format. I still remember parts of many folder names, so you’ll have keywords to work with from the outset.

I’m expecting a methodical, non-destructive approach that checks obvious paths, hidden locations, user profiles, legacy libraries, and any remnants left behind by past Windows upgrades. Feel free to lean on everything from advanced File Explorer queries and PowerShell scripts to specialized file-recovery or disk-cataloguing tools; just avoid anything that writes to the drives in a way that could overwrite deleted data.

Deliverables should be clear:
• The recovered or relocated folders themselves (or copies) placed where I specify.
• A concise report showing each folder’s original/full path, its new path if moved, and the exact steps or utilities you used.

Once I confirm the photos open correctly, the job is done.
