I need some help recovering a hdd partition
The OS is Win7 Home 64 bit on my laptop. I was using prog called Mini Tool Partition Wizard to wipe and reset the partition on a SD card back to 1 partition. I got careless and I didn't verify the drive letter that I was working on before wiping the partition. I ended up wiping the partition on my D hard drive in the external USB case. Nothing has been done to the D drive yet. nothing has been written to it. I have tried 5 that are supposed to be free recovery and restore prog's. They let you scan the drive but they catch you when it comes to doing the recovery it self. They want you to pay to do the recovery and 1 of those progs I think partly reset the D hard drive. The D hard drive is now coming up as D:\ otherwise blank on Windows Explorer. Does this meen that the D hard drive has been partitioned and re-formated? And have I lost all hope of recovering the files. I am getting my old tablet ready to sell because I got a new tablet in the packaged deal with my new cell phone. As a side note. I was about 2/3rds done on updating the D hard drive backup dvd's. When I started work on the tablet's SD card. Is there a totally free scan and recovery prog that can still recover the files with? or is it already to late to recover the files?
