I clicked "Free Up Space" on the Photos app of my phone (Pixel 4XL). This is supposed to locally delete all photos already backed up. Unfortunately it just deleted 3gb of photos and they don't seem to be anywhere in my Photos or Drive.
I've searched all over the for them in my Google account, but they don't seem to be anywhere.
I tried to use Recuva and Dr Fone to recover the deleted files, but Recuva doesn't recognize the device and Dr. Fone requires Root Access for deleted folders.
Anyone have any experience/advice that can save me here?
TIA!Side note: Yes I know I should have double checked to make sure they were backed up beforehand. Now I know for next time.
