FAQs:

Does vixia video recovery support canon legria?

Yes, legria and vixia basically are the same models, the difference is that they are sold in different regions, vixia in the states and legria in the euro.

I vaguely remember that there's a video I took but I can't find it in the scanning result? Is there something wrong?

If the deleted files are not in the scanning result, the most likely reason is that they are overwritten by the new videos taken by canon vixia, in this case, files being overwritten can't be brought by the vixia video recovery software, sorry…

Okay, I connect my vixia camcorder with computer and open the software, but the software didn't pick up the camcorder in the "select drive" menu.

You should set the connection mode as USB mass storage, if you are using a flash memory card camcorder, preferably, use a card reader to access the storage.
