Hi!

 

I have a question, is there any way that i can get my file from ssd that was formatted and windows was installed on it.

I forgot to take some files from the ssd before formatting.

Is there any way to recover it? 

 

Thank you for your help!

First do not continue to use this drive if possible. As you use it it becomes less likely you can get the information back that you are attempting to recover. There are a number of disk recovery software available and Ill leave it up to you to decide which you prefer to use. There are also free options however, I have only ever used a lifetime paid option. Depending on where the media that you were trying to recover was on the drive will affect how successfully you can recover it on your own.

 

If the data is very important you can send it off to a company that specializes in drive recovery and they can do a far more sophisticated recovery on the drive, looking at how the bit values were changed.

 

In the future, create a partition on a drive specifically for the OS if you are using a single drive. It will safeguard your data far more than having it all on one drive and if the partition isn't formatted you should retain it all, meanwhile giving you the freedom to install and format your OS as you please.

If you already reinstalled Windows, there's a good chance the files that were there previously got overwritten. You can try to use recovery software, but any write operation on the drive increases the chance of overwriting the files. So you'd have to use a different drive to work off of.

As you use the drive, the chances of said file being recovered are diminished. Depending on the files location on the drive it can be written over and the values representing the file will be changed. You can however still use recovery software on the drive without losing your current installation of windows, however depending on the route you may also need a secondary drive, or to create a new partition by shrinking your current one to run a virtualized machine.

 

This being said, if recovering the file is your main priority, I strongly recommend performing no alterations of the drive or its partitions any further.
