Full Version: How can I recover files from a formatted hard drive?
Is possible to recover files from a formatted hard drive?... any recomendation?...
Just scroll up to the very top of this page and click the Recuva link. 
As Andavari said, Recuva. It can recover anything(for me). 
On a formatted drive? With no or a new MFT? If the formatting process reallocates the MFT, or wipes all the old entries, then I think that Recuva will not have a great deal of luck. I don't think that popular software applications will be able to help. There are specialist firms that will do this, but it is expensive.
Let me know if I'm wrong, which I'll be quite happy with, and I'll rethink how Recuva works!

It's very expensive. However if the data is that important that's the best solution for the best recovery.
