Accidental format

I inserted my friend's pendrive 15mins back and wanted to format it to free it of all trojans. Accidently I formatted my other drive (D:) and lost all data. My primary drive is still safe but I've lost all my precious data on that drive.

Is there a way to get it back? :(

Any help would be appreciated.

OS: Windows Vista


Solution 1:

depends alot. Was it a quick format ? if so it likely only removed the file index table, and you should be able to get most of the data back using standard forensic tools, it'll take a while though depending on size.

Solution 2:

Recuva may help you.
