Spent a weekend with an old college friend in San Jose, took a hike on point lobos and took a decent amount of pics, in spite of the marine layer clouds flattening everything out.
I was able to preview the pics on the camera when I took them, but I put the card in my card reader when I got home, started transferring... in the middle of the transfer, my desktop disappeared and only the base windows color scheme color showed for about 5-10 seconds. It responded to a ctrl-alt-del to pull up task manager, but then the desktop came back on its own1. When it came back the transfer process had "completed" but about 2/3 of the point lobos pics I took (roughly a hundred of them) were just... gone. Not in a separate folder that I could find, not on my hard drive, not on the flash card not anywhere.
I used recuva to look to see if they registered as "deleted" files I could recover, and recuva saw nothing from that day.
The camera doesn't see anything either. It's like I never took them. Really pissed because I think I got some really good portraits of the friend and her fiance.
Anyone run into anything like this before?
Canon 70D, windows 10, latest build, system in sig.
