Dear Sirs,
I have accidentally formatted my hdd.
The hdd with my useful files was in a linux ext2.
I accidentally format it in NTFS as I decide to use windows system. I made a quick format.
The formatted hdd is an external storage not my bootable disk. I have not written anything over it.
Can I recover my files in windows system?
I tried an application but unreadable files are generated.
Thank you,
Giannis
