I have an older usb drive that was my late mother's drive. The files she had on it were accessible until I went to update her laptop computer early last month. I forgot to remove the drive before resetting the laptop and when the resetting was completed her files were no longer openable and their titles were unreadable. I can put other files on the drive so I know it's not write protected. How do I go about unlocking the locked up files?

Sincerely,

Michael Keffer
