[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Problem-missing pictures

[Robert Primak]

 What format were the pictures in on the old computer? (JPEG/JPG or proprietary Nikon Format?)
It looks like the NCCONLST icon is referencing a configuration file. Did the old computer have any Nikon software installed on it?
See: https://www.justanswer.com/laptop/8j4yc-program-use-view-ncconlst-files.html
Windows can be instructed to treat the SD Card in a lot of different ways. Has the Windows Settings app been used? 
The SD Card should be treated in Windows as Pictures, not Files. The Windows default since forever has been Files. This would present you with the configuration file from the SD Card, which is useful only to the camera's firmware.
When I used to upload pictures from a very old Nikon camera to a computer, I would have to fix the way Windows (or Linux) would treat the SD Card, so as to treat it as a Pictures archive, not a system of Files on external storage.

My daughter experienced a problem(described below) when she tried to load pictures from her SanDisk card to her new computer. 

If you believe you can help he,r let me know and I will pass contact information on.

  

Thanks in advance

Subject: missing pictures

  

Here's what happened: 

I was uploading pictures from my camera's SanDisk card, which I have done hundreds of times before on my old computer.  All I would have to do is insert the card into the computer, open the file and take whichever pictures I wanted from the card to my computer. 

  

With my new computer, however, when I inserted the SanDisk card into the computer I wasn't able to browse the pictures at all.  When I tried opening the file I got the NCCONLST icon and then a message that I could use a program to open the pictures with that.  Unfortunately, I wasn't able to do that either. 

  

Does that make sense? 

  

The microsoft person says there's a chance the pictures are somewhere on my computer but I haven't been able to locate them. 

  

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
