Log carving occurs when a recovery program uses information left over in either file system structures or the log to recover a deleted photo. For example, occasionally NTFS will store in the logs the exact location of where the file was located prior to its deletion. A program using log carving will be able to then recover the photo.
The most common data recovery scenarios involve an operating system failure, malfunction of a storage device, logical failure of storage devices, accidental damage or deletion, etc. (typically, on a single-drive, single-partition, single-OS system), in which case the ultimate goal is simply to copy all important files from the damaged media to another new drive.
Google Photos is a photo sharing and storage service developed by Google.It was announced in May 2015 and spun off from Google+, the company's former social network.. Google Photos shares the 15 gigabytes of free storage space with other Google services, such as Google Drive and Gmail.
TestDisk can recover deleted files especially if the file was not fragmented and the clusters have not been reused. There are two file recovery mechanisms in the TestDisk package: [2] TestDisk proper uses knowledge of the filesystem structure to perform "undelete". PhotoRec is a "file carver". It does not need any knowledge of the file system ...

Recovery is also related to the type of Data Loss Event. Recovering a single lost file is substantially different from recovering an entire system that was destroyed in a disaster. An effective backup regimen has some proportionality between the magnitude of Data Loss and the magnitude of effort required to recover. For example, it should be ...
PhotoRec is a free and open-source utility software for data recovery with text-based user interface using data carving techniques, designed to recover lost files from various digital camera memory, hard disk and CD-ROM. It can recover the files with more than 480 file extensions (about 300 file families).
This process is usually much safer in aiding recovery of deleted files than the undeletion operation as described below. Similarly, file systems that support "snapshots" (like ZFS or btrfs), can be used to make snapshots of the whole file system at regular intervals (e.g. every hour), thus allowing recovery of files from an earlier snapshot.
