Yesterday, I accidentally deleted the wrong partition and needed to recover all the files from it. As a follow-up to this post, I'm making a new post, as the circumstances have changed. Here's what happened:

  1. Accidentally deleted the wrong partition;
  2. Tried recovering the partition using Partition Wizard, EaseUS, etc.;
  3. Was finally able to recover most of the partition (3GB were left out, for some reason);
  4. Now, the recovered partition shows up as RAW and can't view any files;
  5. All file recovery software I've tried either shows nothing found or a bunch of .SWF files, which are Adobe ShockWave files, which I didn't have;
  6. I'm screwed;

I had irreplaceable data in that partition and I absolutely need to recover it. I'll take any suggestions. Please read the post linked above to see the different suggestions I got, as I tried them all already.

 

Many thanks,

Bruno.

As much as I like & prefer DIY if you've already tried a series of your own recovery softwares with no luck and this data is SERIOUSLY irreplaceable it may be time to consider professional recovery.

 

There's also the concern that you probably haven't set the drive to read only mode meaning there may already be data that you won't be getting back as it stands right now.

 

I'm trying to remember the name of the company LMG used to recover their SSD server data a couple years back.

 

In the future proper up-to-date backups are very important for situations such as this.

I decided to go with a Data Recovery company, as I have no other option. Tried every data recovery trial out there and still wasn't able to recover the files, which also kills the hope of a company recovering my files, since they use software anyway.
