Format a partition by mistake? What’s worse, no backup is done before formatting. Don’t worry. We still have the chance to unformat a partition on Windows. However, when formatting takes place, there are some points we should keep in mind.

 

● No writing on the partition
● No installing any program on it
● No more formatting
● No trying any untrusted data recovery program

 

Namely we’d better not try to do any thing to the partition, which is very important. Actually the data are not really immediately erased out of the drive after we format the partition. They still exist somewhere in an invisible way. At this time, the space taken by the formatted data is marked as available to write. When we write new data in, they will occupy the space and the formatted data will be really and permanently cleared. Thus, to protect the partition is the vital part to determine whether we can successfully unformat a partition on Windows or not.
