1Actually, photorec will recover whatever file extension you tell it to. If you only want jpg and png, you can tell photorec (testdisk) to only recover and search for jpg and png files.– mchidJul 16, 2017 at 9:33

@karel Thank's, I was just trying to let the OP know that so maybe they will give your answer a try. Also, I thought that I might get some clarification from the OP about that.– mchidJul 16, 2017 at 10:34

1 Answer
With photorec before you start [Search]
under [File Opt]
you can choose the file extensions you wanna recover.
photorec
is a part of testdisk
project but photorec
is for recoverying files while testdisk
is for recovering and repairing partitions.
