So i'm a programmer who's making a game on visual studio. I save my game on a USB so i can take it everywhere. Unfortunately, i left my USB in my home and when i booted up my PC, it did a scan and repair on my USB (drive (i)). so ,when I tried to open my game it failed and when i looked in the folder, it showed a file called FOUND.000, and my actual folder that had my project in was converted into a file. I really unsure about what to do. i just want to know if there anything or anyway to restore the .CHK files into normal files
I think John is right I had the similar problem a few months ago and this solution has worked for me, all of my files were hidden after an antivirus scan and this made them visible.
