Is there one you recommend?

i tried the undelete (under advanced options) and it said no deleted files but PhotoRec finds the files. is there any other way to recover the entire drive?

Anyone? Please help

when i use "p" to view files, this is all i see.



Should i select write?

Does this mean my data is still there and i should select write?

any ideas?

if i select the drive and click write, I should get all my data back

i figured it out. it's lumped in with the *.txt.


Also, how many passes does PhotoRec make?

how do i recover files associated with Arduino IDE (*.h files)?

so if i select the drive and click write, I should get all my data back??

Try testdisk, Advanced, undelete.
If you had a single NTFS partition, as a single NTFS partition has been recreated, the same location have been used to store the NTFS boot partition, its backup, NTFS MFT records and so on.
In this case, you should sort the files recovered by PhotoRec. Some tips ...
