See this confuses me.... some people here say it's safe, some say it deletes files.
I KNOW for a fact that it deleted files from my card (after opening Album which searches the SD card).

I hope that I'm not going crazy... because it's not a noobie mistake as I'm a long-time techie.
(I even tried professional software to recover those file... which RARELY [but sometimes] works on flash RAM).


Such a mystery!

Anyhow, I'll never try that method again as it did delete over 30 images from my "discrete" directory.
Oh the horror of losing porn.
