Undo a quick format on a hard drive

[Arlith]

Hello,

Did a quick format on the wrong drive and now I have lost ALL my work. Is there a way to undo this?

Pandora Recovery

Or R-Undelete. Its on-line help will show how to get your files back: Recover Lost Files from Deleted/Corrupted Logical Disks/Partitions.

Has anyone tried these to know how reliable they are? I need to recover about 1.4 TB of lost data, paperwork, documents, university backups, just years of work. I still cannot believe I did a quick format to the storage HDD...

Pandora and R-Undelete WILL recover accidentally deleted files, but if you are trying to recover data from a damaged hard drive, you are better off with @Active Partition Recovery Pro's "Boot ISO"

I install Pandora Recovery onto almost every machine I service.

R-Undelete recovers files even from a re-formatted disk.
