Accidentally reformatted hard drive

#1 Post by jjeff47 »

I accidentally (don't ask) installed a fresh copy of win 8.1 on my hard drive. the drive had a boot partition C:, and a secondary partition D:. Most data is recoverable or rebuildable, but the D: drive had unreplacable photos. I'm running the Test Disk analysis and I want to be sure I don't select the wrong features. Any advice would be appreciated.
