Most newer cell phones come equipped with external memory cards used to store music and photos, among other things. While these memory cards are usually quite good at storing these files, occasionally files are lost. Luckily, they don't have to be permanently lost, provided you act quickly to recover the files using a free data recovery program.
Instructions
1. Download Pandora File Recovery (see Resources for link). Save it to your desktop.
2. Install Pandora by double-clicking the install file on your Desktop. Click "Next" to start the install process and "Finish" once it has completed.
