Hello ,

I have accidently formatted one of the partition of my hard drive. I realised the mistake immediately and stop the formatting process . But now when I access the partition message appears that it is not formatted .
That partition contain important files and I would like to recover it if possible. Any way to recover the files ? Any recommended software for recovery ?

Thank you

How do you accidentally format? You have to take several steps to do it & it even warns you that "all data will be lost" & then asks "are you sure?"
