Show it anywayDo not do this. If you ever find an SD card, there is always a risk of a virus. To open up the SD card and back everything up onto your computer? It's one of the first things they taught us in HS 10+ years ago. Do not plug in a random USB/SD card!
Chiochan, there's a big difference between simply reading the directory contents/ file copying/ backing up a microSD memory card vs. actually executing possibly-infected programs on it. (That's why Windows disables auto-run whenever a USB jumb drive is inserted into a USB port.) Also, it's the function of A/V to prevent against viruses. Backing up your hard-drive/ cell phone is no different vs. execution of infected files/ apps. --30 Yrs Experience as Computer Hardware/ Software Engineer PS Don't understand the hate from everyone on my original post asserting prudence & common sense. Granted, not everyone would've realized the ability to backup jic before formatting, but wasn't I polite nonetheless in my post #1? Whatever....
Today, after two months of messing with this person who found my lost SD card, they formatted it. I probably should've just taken it back with a thank you. Now, everything's gone. FML
Aw you tried to do the right thing, don't feel bad!
cool
sd cards can contain viruses but the virus has no way of infecting a computer. unless you run autorun.exe. much like cd roms, this option should be disabled. this allows you to look at any sd card safely. fortunately, the women is an sd card, so she likely copied your sd card data on to herself. unfortunately, the grammar checking on this site is complete crap. the women WHOSE sd card was lost now has no information.
If you're going to call someone out on their grammar, please use capital letters in your sentences.
It wasn't yours to format...

Just tell her the truth. Two months is a long time.
