Transfer photos from Android, files became very big and unviewable, please help, how to fix?

Hi all,

Need a very big help from all of you, so I was transferring photos from my Note 10 Plus to my windows 10, usually, I will use copy and paste function, but somehow this time, I decided to cut and paste to save some time.

And after transferring the photos, I can't open the files, the file size became very huge as well, it is showing as 173TB when I don't even have such big storage on my computer. Each of the files is 89GB, but the actual size looks like 4kb There are also two arrows on each of the files.

Please advise how can I repair the files if anyone does come across such a problem.

And if it is not repairable, I transferred these photos directly from my phone memory, so if anyone does have experience recovering cut and paste photos from android phone, please provide guidance and help.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Check the "Default Apps" settings, it maybe using wrong Photo Viewer/Editor. That might be culprit why you cannot view the thumbnail or the photo iteself.

By default, Win10 uses the new 3D Viewer, unless there is another application that might have overtake the viewer as default apps.
