"I was trying to move my pictures from my Galaxy S6 to a USB stick through my PC using Windows File Explorer. The 'Camera' folder on the phone was renamed in error, and I did a 'folder rename undo' not realizing what had happened. Now all my pics in that folder are gone!!! It is not on the PC either. I assume the pics are still on the internal memory somewhere but hidden. Any suggestions? Even trusted software to use?"
