How can I recover files from a formatted hard drive partition?

shegzy4 asks:

Is it possible for me to recover my deleted/formatted files on my local disk E? I asked an engineer to format my local disk C, but he formatted the local disk E with all my important files on it, so how can I recover all the documents?

Other tools you can use are “ADRC Data Recovery Express” ($6.99 from http://www.adrc.com/software/data_recovery_express/)
or “Pandora Recovery” (free), in which you need to use “surface scan” to recover the files.

Additionally to avoid data loss you should always ready for it. For this you should always backup your data to an online storage or to a usb flash etc.

Hi Shegzy,

It is possible to recover files from formatted hard drive by using Hard Drive recovery software. I am suggesting you this software because a couple of days ago I was able to restore data from formatted partition when I accidentally chosen the wrong drive for format instead of the primary partition. You can get more detailed information about formatted hard drive recovery by visiting the below mentioned website.
http://www.recoverfiles.org/windows-file-recovery/recover-files-from-formatted-hard-drive
Or else you can directly download demo tool from the link given below and test the recovery results.
