Ohay, so first off, that file system looks fucked. That needs some work. Almost looks like your SD's gotten corrupted somehow.

Second off, that photo looks fucked. Can you please take a clearer image of the cartridge, visibly including the website name listed on it?

Ok, found one just online

I can tell from here that the one you found online isn't the same as the one in the picture. I can get why you'd be mistaken, they're very similar, but the differences matter a lot. Each card has a different firmware.

I think your card's actually this one:

Note the Wi-Fi badge on the top left.

And if I'm assuming right (check the name of the website and make sure it matches!) then follow through with the contents of this post - look at the folder named Spoiler: R4i-SDHC for your card. After that, your firmware should be good to go, and you should be ready to put ROMs on your card.

Being very straight foward.
The data got corrupted some how (maybe a faulty FC, micror SD card or Micro SD adapter, etc)

What you can try is follow these steps to try fix it

1 -Get other Micro Sd adapter and try acess the files again.
2 -You may aso consider using a different computer it it is still damaged
3- Run a software to recover files and save in your pc (dont save into sd card to avoid overwrite anything)

If nothing resolve, the only remaing is format you sd card.
And before making use of it again, use a software to check your sd card health, it may be faulty or too old to
trust

As has already been pointed out, your SD is corrupted, as you can clearly see from the screenshot, and the strange, unintelligible symbols that have appeared. The contents are not recoverable in any way; the memory clusters are damaged and you can only reformat it.
It's not a drama; it's something that can happen....two or three times it happened to me too....
