Recovery after Testdisk

#1 Post by Astriha »

Hi guys,
Need your help. I'm stupid asshole - while analising HDD with Testdusk I've made mistake and scan\write partition table to wrong HDD.
Now I've performed full scan few times, but Testdisk still can't find 2 nfts partitions, only EFI.
Do I have any chance to restore as it was? Thanks!

The best is to read the testdisk.log file created previously.
If there is an EFI partition, choose EFI GPT at the beginning instead of PC Intel.
