Unfortunately, if the files aren't showing up in Explorer, then the most likely explanation is that they were never written to the card at all for some reason.

A couple of things to check before giving up:

  • All modern Canons which can shoot RAW use the .CR2 extension, rather than .CRW.
  • The files will be in a different folder from where your Nikon would have placed them - probably "DCIM/100_CANO"100CANON".

If neither of those work, by all means double check with a card reader, but don't hold out too much hour at this stage.
