How do I convert RAW drive to NTFS without losing data, I tried to recover it using recovery software but it didn't work.

Many moons ago I used a tool called TestDisk to fix a partition that suddenly showed up as RAW.

without losing data

1. Why is it now appearing as RAW?
2. Where is the backup of this data?
