You are absolutely right. Since I already have Google Photos on my phone, it's so unnecessary having all that storage bloating my phone's memory. Thanks again for all your suggestions.

I had read about that .nomedia file, but when I did a search, nothing came up. It's not as bad as I originally thought, this phone is only 2 yrs old. All my photos up to 2020 are on my Note 8 still. Thank you for all your input. I appreciate it.

FYI those 7996 files were just the same files from last time, with some duplicated 3-4 times

I read your guide on recovering the photos, funny thats' the app that I had used where I can't recover all my photos. I just re-ran the app and my 4000+ files are now 7996 recoverable files. I'm going to see if it recovers them all or just the same ones that are already on the phone

Thank you for the info...I will check it out although I will not root my phone. And I actually don't even know if they were deleted as there was nothing in my trash except what I had put in there. Plus the fact that the app I used found those 4000+ photos on my phone somewhere. Just can't figure...

Thanks, I guess I'll remove AVG. Yes, mobile hotspot has never been turned on. IDK if AVG is responsible, but when I started using it, thats when I noticed them missing. The reason that I kept the photos on my phone is they had all been put into albums to make it easier to find. I had not done...

Thank you Yes, I can say that all the photos are in Google which does automatically backup. And I think you are correct about freeing up space, as I recently started using AVG Cleaner. The question now is, how can I recover them? Where did AVG send them as they are not in my trash? I have seen...

Sorry, it's a Samsung S22 Ultra and the photos were saved to internal storage. My photos are on Google photos, but I've always accessed my phone pics from Gallery

I opened my gallery to look for some pics and saw that many of my albums had only a few pics in them. Don't know if it happened after last update... Also, cannot sync to OneDrive as it keeps saying connected to mobile hotspot while I'm home connected to my WIFI
