Aug 1, 2011
I have drive on my hard disc (f contains my important data, and I encrypted it using bitlocker program which comes with windows 7 , accidently the drive had been formatted and the drive was locked (data is encrypted), I tried to recover the data using some recovery software but it's not Working because the data is encrypted and the SW can't see the data , please any one can help or advise to solve that disaster , I lose very much important data and I don't have backup .
Note: I have the password and the recovery key that decrypt the drive but I don't know how to use it because the drive after format back to its normal condition (bitlocker set off)
I had encrypted my C drive with bitlocker. It worked fine for 5 months.After 5 months it was giving problems, so I took help from brother which suggested to reimage the machine with Windows 7.I did the same, however during installation of Win7 it showed drive C and Drive D. I deleted the Drive C and its gone, tried to refresh the windows however still was not there, so now installed Win7 on only remaining drive.I had 500 GB of hard disk divided in 2 partitions. Now I only see 224 GB in My Computer.I don't want to recover my data from encrypted drive; however I need that space of 250 GB.
I formatted my encrypted hard disk of 500 GB by mistake for 2 to 3 seconds.Now, it is not opening. Instead it says---" Disk structure is corrupted and unreadable". What should i do open it?

My harddrive have 3 partitions. I accidentily formatted the one that I need. The Windows files are not in there, but almost every programs that I installed is installed in that partition.

i used bitlocker to encrypt, the process didnt get more than 10% done before failing, the result is a partially encrypted drive that is locked ( password and recovery key wont work) i need a program that will help retrieve the remaining data that is not encrypted.
I formatted my C: (win 7 64 bit os), bt on d way realized that my most imp data was kept hidden under C:UsersPrashant , but couldn't help stopping the format.

I have a Samsung QX410 with Windows 7, 64 bit. When i bought it, i had made a set of 4 recovery disks (i dont really know how they work, or what they do). A few days back my laptop slid and fell down, and since then i have had this trouble. My windows is not loading up.....it takes me to a black screen.
how i recover the windows using those CDs? And also if i use them, does that save my data on D drive or not? I dont really have any data that i want to save on my C drive. What other options do i have to save my data ?

When I run on another computer it doesn't seem to read anything or recognize data!how to recover it?
I changed my motherboard and disconnected all of my drives apart from the one I thought was my C drive. Alas it was not and had some very important folders in it.I started to install windows and got to the drive option and formatted it and as soon as I had I realised which drive it was. I did not go any further with the installation so nothing has written over it.Can anyone advise what my options are if any to recover this drive?
i quick formatted my usb key with the bitlocker key on it and i cant seem to find it using recovery software.I have used recuvra, recover my files, and pc file inspector and i still cant find it....
basically the other day I manged to accidentally quick format my 2TB storage drive. After using some software to see what files I could recover I saw that it found a 150Mb $MFT file. Seeing as all the files are now nameless and will be a heck of a job to get back in working order is it possible to just put the previous $MFT file back on the drive so it actually knows where the data is located.
I'm in need of a software ( free/trial/or paid) to recover my important datas that is collected since 10 years!It happened to a laptop with win 7 installed.It had 4 partitions. One boy copied datas from c: drive to d: drives.Now the datas were in d: e: f: drives.Now the boy installed win 7 formatting the c: drive only. witnesses say the installation showed individual drives.I was not present that time.After installation win 7 shows only one drive - OS C: with the whole drive as one partition with win 7 installed in it.Now how can I restore the datas There was about 130 gb data in d: e: f: drives.
By mistake my external hard disk formatted by clean and clean. How to recover my all file Inside now when I connect the pc its detecting hard disk but not showing its connected.
I just used O&O's Disk Recovery 6, trying to reover from files from a drive that I had repartitioned. It works modestly well, as far as actually recovering the files, once you sort through all of the possible files that it finds, but like in the case at hand, there are over 300,000 files, and the version that I use only lets me recover 1000 at a time. I know that they have a newer version without this limit, but even so it would still require endless rummaging to find exactly what you want, because it scans the entire drive, without letting one set a search zone, and it labels all of the files with it own numbering system, rather than the files original identity.
I have an external HDD (WD MyBook) that fell from a height of about 7 inches. The computer(s) will recognize it but say it's not initialized which means the boot records are fine. There are no grinding or any kind of noises at boot-up so the needle and platter seem to be ok. I started a complete recovery in EASEUS, but it's been 2 hours and it only found 54 files so far. (I know there are hundreds). Usually, on formatted drives, the number of "total files found" add up pretty quickly on this software and it is able to scan a 1TB drive in about 5 - 6 hours. This is the first time that I'm seeing such a slow reading of the drive. (Which makes me wonder again if it's physically damaged). since it's know that the best method of recovery is to start the recovery process as soon as possible, for any usage of the drive will reduce the success rate of recovery. But I'm thinking that if I just allow Windows to initialize the disk and format it with a quick format, that the only thing I'm ruining is the table, which EASEUS doesn't care about since it analyzes the disk by sectors.
Couple a days ago my hp laptop system crash many times, I decided to make a backup to make a clean installation of the operation system, the backup was done with a bridge cable, and is in inside of another internal hdd of a laptop but I am not able to recover the data. All data is there, I connected the hdd where the backup is directly from the motherboard cable and run ubuntu without an installation and all my files are inside, how I can recover my data in this situation? Also when the backup hdd is connected with the bridge appeared in my computer but I am no have accesss to it, it does not say the data weight but say local disk with the letter of the drive.
