What to do when a Windows update fails and causes data loss or corruption?

Alinatait

All I want to know is what to do if data loss and corruption due to my window update to fail and I lose my data. I attempted a few other approaches to recover my data, but I was unable to find a solution. I became aware of several data recovery services for retrieving data . I can recall a few of them, including the BLR data recovery tool, the Disc Drill, the DRS data recovery tool, and many others. Please advise what I should do!

Hello,

It's unclear to me if data loss already occured, or if you just want to take preventive measures for this. If you have recent backups, check to see if lost data can be restored from them. If software tools do not work or if the data is highly critical, you might consider professional data recovery services.

I can't really recommend any, but I can give a brief advice on the best practices here, so a couple of preventive measures for the future. I think the rule of thumb is to use cloud storage or external drives for regular backups. Ensure you have a robust update management process, including creating restore points before updates, and be extra prepared for this scenario by having a plan in place for data recovery, including software.

I hope the information is helpful.
