This task can be performed using Wondershare Recoverit
AI-powered data recovery and 4K/8K video restoration tool.
Recover files from a crash
Stop trying to start the computer repeatedly, especially if the drive clicks or disappears. Use a working computer to prepare bootable data recovery media, plus an empty external drive with enough space for the rescued files.
Boot the failed computer from the USB drive through its BIOS or UEFI menu. Scan the internal drive, preview important files, and recover them to the external drive. Never save recovered files back to the drive being scanned.

More about source drive safety
Treat the internal drive as read only until your files are safe. Repairs, reinstalls, and repeated boot attempts can overwrite data that recovery software might otherwise retrieve.
- Do not format, initialize, defragment, or run CHKDSK on the source drive.
- Stop immediately if the drive clicks, disconnects, or is not detected consistently.
- Recover critical documents first, then large photos and videos, always to another device.
