Recover lost partition after create other size partiton

#1 Post by Mayuru »

Hello all,

i wonder if someone can help me. This is the issue:

Accidently i deleted a partion with gparted wile shorting the partition. i shorted the partition and the partition was deleted (so, heres is ne thing - delete, resize and create a partion).
Next i tried to recover the partition with no luck. Than i created another fullsize partition and tried to recover the partition with no luck... Am i missing something?

No data was writen in this partition/Disk - Only 2 partitions were created.
The Disk is in this partition format: 1 boot partition / 1 Primary (no data) partition / 1 Windows Recovery partition

Oneother thing if i may... can i recover windows with my disk has it is?

Thanks in advanced

You did not tell which partition is affected neither you posted a logfile for others to see.
If you did not succeed using Testdisk including the deep search function there is Photorec left.
Oneother thing if i may... can i recover windows with my disk has it is?
I apologize I don't understand what "with my disk has it is?" means.

Re: Recover lost partition after create other size partiton

Did you run an analysis on the drive that you messed up?
Did you run deep search?
Are you able to find the data you are missing using the "p"-key ("list files")?

Yes i run the analysis and Deep Search. Now i found the partition, by chance (as i´m new at Testdisk)
And yes, the "p" key showed me the files i lost :D

Here are 2 images:

I can't see your images.
Please upload them using the attachment tab on the bottom of the page.

Anyway, when being in the "list files" menu, you are able to select files and folders and trigger copying them to a target location.
Be careful to copy to a location on another healthy drive!

Copying your desired files or even the content of the whole partition to another drive is non-destructive.

Your system reserved partition ends at 44 190 18.
Your chosen partition where you listed your files starts at 44 190 19.
In an MBR-style partitioning scheme there is at least one free sector required between each partition.
There is no unused sector between those two, unfortunately.

Maybe your disk was partitioned in GPT mode, I don't know. In this case this additional free sector is not required.
I don't know how your setup has been initially.

I would recommend copying for you.

Ok thanks!
I will accept your solution - Copy the files.
Maybe the disk will boot again after copy all the files to its original place, as my ideia was to get the drive booting again. If there is no chance to do that, no worry, i will try to work arround.
Perhaps Gparted will help.
