You may experience such problems as an isolated incident (one important file won’t open), or as a cluster, where all files of a particular type appear to be damaged. You might also see that only files created on or near a specific date are affected.
Regardless of the situation, you’re in a mess. You feel you must either accept the loss of the file as gone forever or you’re stuck redoing hours’, days’, or even weeks’ worth of effort. Or you could sit and bemoan the fact that you never did that backup of your files you kept procrastinating.
None of those options sounds ideal, do they?
