Edge 810 corrupt file

Can anyone help me determine if one of these files are correct (but perhaps corrupted) from my 50 mile ride yesterday? I used my Garmin Edge 810, but I don't see a Forums category for it so I'm asking here.

My battery was running low at the end of the ride. The activity appeared to save correctly, but there was no file to upload, either manually when I connected the device to my computer, or through Bluetooth. I fished around and finally found some files with the correct date, but the file sizes seem too small for the long ride.

If there's ANY data that can be recovered, I'd really appreciate some help. Of course, it was the day I PR'd on a big climb!!

Thanks,

Lynn

    hi @Lynn,

    sorry to hear about your mishap

    • file 2020-07-18-10-32-18.fit recorded 30 seconds and is not corrupted (import it from withn Garmin Connect Web)
    • file 964053089_84032.fit is a Strxxx segment file

    you could use a file recovery program for such a recovery

    what you had to do

    • turn the edge off
    • only turn it back on to perform the file recovery scan

    just maybe and with a lot of luck

    stop all activity on your edge by turning it off until you start a file recovery scan

    with the use of a file recovery program and some luck one could find the rest of the fit file

    for PC

    for Mac

    when you have found some files and they do not work for the upload ... give a yell back here Slight smile

    happy & safe sporting
