Some files from my SD card won’t copy over to my PC

[Android Central Question]

I have a 64gb Sandisk sd card which I was using in my S8 since last year, it’s now full and I’m trying to copy the files onto my PC to then move to a new SD card. The first time I was copying over the files, my pc crashed and I believe it has corrupted or damaged some files, as it comes up with an error that it can’t copy them due to an I/O error. The strange thing is, one of those files is from the voice recorder folder and I can still play it but it won’t copy over. I’d be really grateful if anyone knows a fix for this as these are really valuable files. Thanks.

It's going to take time (the computer's, not yours), but if the files are still there, PhotoRec will recover them. Read PhotoRec Step By Step first. (It's free, although I don't know why - it's worth a lot.)

Thanks.(I posted this earlier but I didn’t have an account so I couldn’t reply to anybody, I’ll expand a bit further, I’ve tried the chkdsk method in cmd and I’ve tried scanning and repairing with the built in windows tool and both say there’s no problem)
