I have accidently run recovery manager on my laptop without taking a back of my data. How can I now recover the lost data?
Best reply by Colanth:
If it got overwritten, which is probably the case, by paying a lab tens of thousands of dollars to scan the disks in the drive with a scanning electron microscope (with no guarantee of success – you pay up front).
IOW, it’s gone.

I need a hard drive recovery company?
my old computer was pretty old (2001/2 I think) it had a recovery partition which I used to reformat the hard-drive of my old computer to re-install windows XP many times, If I were to get a new computer without an OS, would it be possible to use that recovery partition on a completely new setup (old one went out the window >.< )
Best reply by Arie:
No, that is not possible. First of all the recovery partition was intended specifically for your old computer, meaning that it contained custom drivers for example. Technically it is therefore not possible, but legally it is not allowed either as it is an OEM license, which is only allowed to be used on the computer it was sold with.

I’ve a presentation tomorrow in which I have to tell how a data recovery software works in a nutshell. How it traverses through HD, how it judges whether the data is a complete file or Allocation Table….? How it tells what’s the file extension? etc
Plz tell if you have relevant information… best answer gets 10 points!
Best reply by Toby:
Dude, it sounds like you’ve put your research project off until the last minute. Sucks to be you. You aren’t going to get any answer here that is a substitute for everything that you need to know for your presentation. It’s a highly technical subject. Volumes could be written about it.

Please tell me any website where i can get free full version data recovery tool. Please help me out friends.
Best reply by Arie:
Data recovery software only helps with recovering deleted files, not corrupted files. If Excel cannot properly show the file any more, you are out of luck. Sorry. I hope this will teach you how important it is to make proper backups of your personal files.

It is very likely that you have to pay for those data recovery software, which can let you preview the effects but cannot save the data before buying it.
I recommend one professional data recovery software:

which is the best DATA RECOVERY SOFTWARE to recover from HARD DISK ?
My old hard drive is corrupted and I want to salvage the files on it using a data recovery program I’ve downloaded. However getting the program to read it is difficult. Do I need to reformat the hard drive? When I go to reformat it says this will erase all data on the disk, but according to other websites I’ve read it should be fine and I should still be able to salvage files. Which is correct?
Best reply by Tony RB:
If you do a full format, all the data on the disk will be overwritten with the formatting data – and you will lose the data you want to retrieve.
There is a type of formatting called “quick format” but that erases all the folder data, and that means you will have even more problems finding the data you want.
You say getting the program to read it is difficult. If the hard drive is failing, then you will have enormous problems getting any program to work right.
If the only problem is corrupted folder structures, then a quick format *might* work to erase all of the corrupted data, leaving the other data. Then your data recovery program would have to scan the entire hard drive.
I use the free Recuva program from Piriform to recover data, but I don’t know how it would work in your situation. Recuva has the ability to scan all the hard drive sectors, it is an option. If you can get it to work, you will need another drive to have a place to copy the selected data.

Wikipedia article about Recuva:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recuva
There are programs available that will read the data directly off the sectors of the hard drive and present it in hexadecimal format, but that doesn’t mean you can make enough sense out of the data to be able to recover it. The better programs also cost money.
