Have a wee problem that im sure is fixable, basically the partition for my archive drive got deleted and now i need to recover the data. does anyone know what the best app is to do this? have done a small amount of reading and there are a few out there. and a few ways to do it
Advice GREATLY appreciated
Quite a few options.Try these free softwares to recover lost data.
1: Free Download hard drive data recovery software tools for FAT & NTFS Drive Recovery - EASEUS
2: Recuva - Undelete, Unerase, File and Disk Recovery - Free Download
Looking at this recuva app
Does this require you to have the partition intact? i deleted the partition accidently in disk managment but have not formatted so the data is still there correct? and will this app find it?
So your saying theres no way to recover? i have read otherwise elsewhere
Since the entire partition has been deleted, I dont think these free softwares will do any magic. Your best bet is to take the PC to DriveSavers Data Recovery Services or similar companies and get the data recovered.
Yeah i know the expense of recovery campanies, i have not formatted the disk, it is my understanding that it isstill recoverable, might wait and see if anyone else can suggest anything
Just make sure you do not write to the HDD in the meantime - e.g. download stuff. That may use the partition space because it is marked as "available".
