Due to the limited description you made, I do not fully understand if you have deleted them from the camera or computer. But I guess you did not format the SD card. Do not worry. Even when you format the SD card, you can try EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard Pro Pro to get your precious memory back.

The step-by-step guide is as follows:

Step 1. Carefully insert the SD card into the card reader and connect it to your computer. Open EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard on your Windows PC and select "Scan".

Step 2. When the scanning process is finished, specify one or several file types to find your lost files. You can first preview them by clicking them one by one.

Step 3. Click “Recover” to perform the recovery process and save it to another safe place instead of the original SD card.

There is a way out when you accidentally delete footage from your GoPro, but it is best to nip it in the bud. Here are some pro tips to protect your data on GoPro:

  • Check your SD card health regularly
  • Always make a backup of your critical files
  • Use compatible file types when you save your videos
  • Replace the battery whenever necessary
  • Avoid virus or malware infection when inserting the SD card into your PC
