- Hi guys this is channel f&D in this video I'm going to show you guys how to recover data from deleted or lost partition. Normally when a partition gets deleted all the data in it is gone for sure but using a software called test disk you can recover the data from the lost partition. Test disk is a command line tool so you have to use commands inside this software. you can download test disk from the below link. There is no other way that you can use to recover files from deleted partition
Download link for TESTDISK (both 64 &32 bit) :---

Thanks for watching
2020 here. Thanks a lot my guy, this saved my 1tb of files! For anyone still confused, choose the default partition table type, my WD external HDD was EFI GPT. You can see the "hint" below the table type for this. After analyzing, since my HDD is only for storage, it only shows P=primary and D=deleted as partition characteristics. I chose P, and went with the rest of this tutorial. After rebooting my PC, i load up my WD discovery and, viola!
Thanks for your feedback :)
Hi There.!! Facing same issue with my WD External HDD. Like urs, the hint shows the partition table type as EFI GPT. When i try to analyse, it takes quite long (only 20% completed in about 8 hours!!!).
Mind you, my hard disk is 2TB & has less than 500 GB data.!! How long did it take for you to complete analysis!? I know its 2 yrs but if at all u remember.!!
O meu HDD também é WD mas tem 4TB está Protetion Partition GPT, será que funciona também? Não posso perder meus dados.
@@vijayragavan5621Hey,
Same issue here. What did you finally do?
Works like a charm, thanks mate! This was very useful. Out of all the videos I've watched on recovering data, this one is the best. I can't believe I got to see my deleted files again on my laptop, truly was panicking for the past hours, but you saved me. I can't describe how useful this was to me, but thank you. Thank you very much, I hope your life gets better from here on.
Works like a charm to this day, thanks a ton! Just a tip for people: look up the differences between a logical and primary partition, it could be different. Long story short: the C drive is the primary partition, any other partition is probably a logical partition
As of May 2021, this still works. Thank you so much! I didn’t have to spend money to recovery it.
You save me. I accidentally deleted my second hardrive partition when i want to boot new window on my first ssd. You really save me. Tq
Thanks for your feedback
Bro you are an absolute LEGEND for this. AMAZING!
Thanks for your feedback.😊👌
Thank you for the informative video. I accidentally "cleaned" a VERY IMPORTANT drive/partition in diskpart and immediately realized it before doing any further commands. Following your tutorial on this software (aside from P structure instead of L since my cleaned partition was a Primary) everything worked like a charm. After rebooting I didn't even have to do anything further as my drive and all folders showed up and associated immediately with all file paths.
+Galius7 Thank you for your positive comment bro 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
@@fDFerozDaniel what if i restarted and created a folder in the drive which i accidentally cleaned. what to do then?
4 years after you published and it still works. thanks man!
Yeah I remember those days when I was recording my voice with my old basic mobile phone at night and that was the reason for the poor audio quality too. But I'm happy that my effort helped many people.
This video is really helpful still in December 2021, thousand of thanks dude, you saved my data. 😃
only one change, when connecting an external disk, you have to select P, instead of L in the last step.
I confirm that, same with me here.
Thank you! You helped the community by posting this video a few years ago, and now it’s helped some of us in 2021, god bless you ♥️
Thanks to you I recovered every document and photo I had in my data drive, You are a great teacher.
Thank you :-)
Thank you!!!!.... just recovered a very large external drive with MONTHS of work!!!
AWESOME! :)
Thanks for your feedback 😭😭
Honestly can't thank you enough for this. After a few days of trying to fix this problem and getting nowhere, I followed the instructions in this video and it worked like a dream. I can't tell you how relieved I feel right now. Thank you!
Thanks for your feedback :)
Thank you so much! I accidentally partitioned the wrong drive and lost the Minecraft server I play on with my friends with tens of hours of progress. I successfully recovered it thanks to you!
Thanks for your feedback :)
After I analyze the drive it says: Partition: Read error. This the 3rd recovery software I've used. About to format the thing and cry myself to sleep. It's a 1T Seagate external. No visible damage or accidents. Just crashed while playing an emulator from it.
i got the same error, did you find a solution?
@@danielhlw Unfortunately no... I got a suggestion on Reddit to take the thing apart and try recovery via a SATA connection, but I've been too busy to try it. I just bought another external until I have time to do it.
@@mistreviews What was your case? Can you please elaborate?
Also, did you try a deeper search?
dude, you are just awesome and thanks for making this video. It helped me and I hope it helps all of us time to time.
Thank you so much! You saved me 12 years of important data and childhood pics
Bro, you are a lifesaver, had 500 GB of crucial data, and got it recovered, it's almost 2024 and this method still works like a charm, thank you so much!
Is it normal for it to take a while to detect the lost partition?
Thanks a fcking lot! I lost 150gb simulation files. Producing these took me about 5 months and while trying to create a raid, I accidentally deleted the Volume. I got all my files back. You really saved my day!
Sorry for poor audio quality
@@fDFerozDaniel The audio quality is definitely not, what this video is about :) it's about helping people recovering their files for free and that is great!
Thanks bro.....but I am going to concentrate on audio quality too
Leonhard Balster Stop swearing you uneducated gutter faeces, kids read this channel.
BRUV THIS WAS SO SIMPLE AND EASY UNLIKE THE OTHER TUTORIALS, AND IT WORKED 🙏 GOD BLESS FAM ✊
Thanks ✌️✌️
Thank you, you saved my 500 gb of data on my cleaned hard disk
you just saved my old data including my childhood pics I salute u and respect u with my open heart :) pleasure
I'm happy for you
Hi, what is the difference between Primary, Logical, Deleted, etc..
Thanks a lot bro. You saved my 500 gb data containing important softwares. Thanks a lot.
Excellent man, it worked for me. Thanks for the help!
Thanks for your feedback.....
how do you 'reboot' an external drive? Ive done all the testdisk procedures but when I unplug and plug in again the external drive partitoon still deleted.
Saved my bacon. Like an idiot I left an 8tb hd hooked up while installing windows 10 and deleted the wrong drive partition and immediately stopped as I knew it was still recoverable if I didnt continue to make it worse. Did not use the Intel/PC partition option as that didnt work the first attempts. The second EFi GPT one worked for my particular hard drive as that is what it was formatted in I believe
My problem is that it's frequent and reversible i.e Sometimes my Hard Drive (partitions) are normal working but sometimes my whole computer seems to be laggy and after restart, the HARD DRIVE Partitions are gone. Again, they come back after not-fixed no. of restarts.
You deserve a medal, man!
Thanks - Arigatou!
Thanks bro
TX a lot, I was using a TESTDISK 2019 and I had to make a Primary partition, but ok worked... Take care! :))
Thanks for your feedback
YESSS YOU FUCKING HERO
I was up till 2 am yesterday trying to do this
I was going to pay $39 for mini partition
and I just followed your video and fixed it in a few minutes
YOU ARE A GOD THANK YOU SIR. THANK YOU
What is your paypal? I want to donate to you to say thank you
Thank you!
Thanks a lot bro. You saved my 1 TB data containing important softwares. Thanks a lot.
JABLI bro can u please help me.. while i was installing my windows i used clean on commend promote now i lost all of my partitions data .. how can i get them back
Will this work with 1TB Seagate HDD whose blue light is not blinking while conmecting and it is showing *Not Initialized and Unallocated* ???
Please tell me ???
Did you initialize it by right clicking?
@@fDFerozDaniel No, I haven't done that because of fearing losing data...? Should I initialize that ? Because I want to 1st save my data...?
@@fDFerozDaniel Bro please reply me.....???
Great tutorials bro my whole disk formated now I want to recover data can you make one more tutorial for whole disk
My pc does not stat do you fix it
Jan 2022 here, this works 100%, I accidentally deleted the volume of my external hdd with windows 10's disk manager. Used Intel (Default) and (P) Primary for external storage only drive.
Awesome video bro! This saved my life haha! I accidentally deleted the single partition on my FAT32 formatted thumb drive. I used testdisk-7.2.win64 on windows 11 and it worked! (even though the README didn't state that it will work on windows 11)
Works like magic. Thanks FOSS🙏, Ill make sure to donate to the developer once I start making my own money lol.
Great tutorial dude :D
Hi .. from 2024 here....
I used the damin windows creation tool. My external was 1T (with data). After using that tool it become (ESD-USB 32 GB FAT 32, PRIMARY PARTITION) and besid it (899.51GB UNLOCATED). if i use this video can i have my data again . Please help me
Many thanks to you my friend. You saved my skin.
Thanks for your feedback..........
Thanks a lot mate 💜 2024 and still works 💪 Was freaking out cause I deleted the partition of my 2nd drive (where I had some important stuff backed up) while reinstalling windows on the primary 😢
It asked to reboot pc, when I proceed it opened with "A disk read error occurred press ctrl+alt+delete" message.. when I pressed ctrl+alt+delete screen came with same message... please help how to fix it....
Bro thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏🙏 your video save may data. I am going to save this video for the rest of my life. Thank you again
Ur a fucking legend mate, accidentaly formated wrong partition ( external hdd disk for files )during w10 install, and this worked like a charm, everything is intact, file names,directories,everything is just as it was before :)
I get this error message after pressing quick search " the harddisk seems too small! Check the harddisk size: HD jumper settings, BIOS detection. The follwing partition can't be recovered: HPFS - NTFS". If I press continue I get 4 HPFS - NTFS and 2 fat 32 partitions, how should I know which to recover?
Although it shows up in diskmanager under "unallocated drive". Tips on how to solve? It's a 1TB drive with 500gb files on it? nvm you can list files by pressing "p"
worked. thx so much!
????
What did u do afyer that error message? Im stuck in the same spot now
@@dhanajon5528 press enter and several partitions will show up. then you look for which parition has the files you want to recover
@@alenkova30 it didnt work, it just went back and the same error popped up
Didn't work for me. It found the name of my partition, but after a reboot nothing had changed and many errors in the log file like this: "file_pread(5,2,buffer,390733088(243201/143/15)) lseek err Invalid argument"
Any other settings I could try?
Thanks man, you are my hero
it is works.
and then i can fix my raw partition, lost data, and all my errors
Hi, will this work after I executed diskpart clean? Please help I’m in trouble 😭😭😭
Dude, you saved me, I thought I lost over 300GB of games from my hard drive because Windows messed up, I'm so grateful thank you!!!
Damn, im in the same situation now, 500GB of games. Hope this works for me too
@@dhanajon5528 Wishing you all the best, I hope you get them back, it's such a stressful situation
@@indigotears question. Did it take long for u to analyze? Im at 70% after almost 2 hours
@@dhanajon5528 At first I canceled the process pretty quickly because at this point I thought nothing was going to work but the partition showed up anyway, it was pretty quickly for me, just a lot of times restarting my laptop.
@@indigotears so the answer is just to restart repeatedly lol?
Hi, back again on the same HDD... Unfortunately, now I've to fix an unallocated external hard drive error (full of my personal , non-backuped, data) and I don't want to lose that data (I saved 2wks ago!!), do you have any suggestion? (right now I don't have another 1Tb USB drive to store my data :(
Thanks for your kind reply :)
Subscribe to a cloud drive for 1 month on 1TB plan.
Upload your failing hard disk data to the cloud drive.
Then proceed to buy a new drive within the month and download the data into the new drive.
@@netmatrix75 Hi!, many TX for your kind suggestion, unfortunately my connection is too slow and my plan is not flat :(. but TX!
Awesome tutorial - you saved me a huge amount of data. Thank you x 100!
On doing restart, my computer is showing load disk error.
What to do?
This is the video you need. Look no further!

Thanks a lot. Liked and subscribed.
Thank you very much sir for your knowledge, I am sorry I dont have the money to donate to you for the software, I am very sorry and may god bless you and your family 🙏
you saved my data so much important data ..thanks sooo much bro.. APPRICIATE IT
.
I tried this with Test Disk, Version 7.1, and an old, Samsung 1 terabyte hard drive.
Test Disk just gave me an error message, which read: Partition write error.
Your video would be easier to follow if you said, "Select Quick Search," instead of "hit enter." That is just confusing! I have to look at the screen and guess at the option you selected.
Same thing I m getting error after last write process..
Can u help us here ?
U saved my holidays by recovering my games
Do you formatted them
No
bro can u please help me.. while i was installing my windows i used clean on commend promote now i lost all of my partitions data .. how can i get them back
NOT POSSIBLE TO CHOOSE "logical" in test disk. Only * , D and P . Not working change RAW to ntfs....
bhai thank you so much boht right video bnaye h aap 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
How do you find if you had a NTFS partition called A, then mistakenly format it, then created another NTFS partition called B, but didn't write anything to disk after then. I just want to find the contents inside the old partition A. Testdisk can't find it?
Hello, test disk does not detect the correct size of the HD. It says it is 128GB when it is 1TB.
Before I got to the Logical and primary things when I clicked on quick search it took like 30 minutes of searching just to display "Not found" and I was never able to get to that screen, when I tried on other working drivers it worked perfectly, What could be the problem?
Hello sir
I installed window 10 in my laptop but by mistake choose the wrong drive for window installation and lost the whole data of that drive ... please suggest me some solution to recover that lost data if possible . It's urgent
If you have finished installing Windows on that drive it's difficult to recover the data
Its Works, Ty so much My Lord,
I hope you can always in good day,
Ty for usefull introduction
Thank you very much for helping me retrieve my lost partition
how can i convert a RAW partition on my drive without losing the data help, please?
help! I click proceed and nothing happens and the testdisk doesn't response.... why is that? :((((
It says: Partition sector doesn't have the endmark 0xAA55 :(
Testdisk won't work for me because the correct size is not detected by testdisk. 512Kib as opposed to the actual size of 16gb.
When i delete the pation i recreate it. So can i recover the data
I did the same on my hard drive and was able to recover 2 partition but one partition is coming as access denied while showing healthy (Logical drive) in disk manager! Any solution for it?
Right click on the drive and click on add drive letter
@@fDFerozDaniel tried that too but it’s showing same! My imp data is in that partition 😅 and other partition got recovered instead!
It’s showing as
D:\ is not accessible
Access is denied
Tried all the possible solution found on internet! Can you help anyway? Or is it time to go to any data recovery centre?
hello, I tried this method but now the disk doesn't appear in my computer section and also it seems it created a partition, please help me to undo what the video explains because I did exactly as the video said me to do, I need to undo everything so I can go back to how things were in the beginning. Thank you
sir i have formatted my disk partition and also overwritten that partition. can i recover the partition, sir please reply me and suggest me something through which i could recover it.
You have 50 or less than 50% chance of recovering your data as you have overwritten it. Follow the instructions in the video

My disk goes from like 01% and then jumps to 364801/364800: 99%... what do I do? I'm unable to proceed. It even disappears and I have to restart my computer if I X out of the program.
After pressing deeper search do I wait for the analyse cylinder to reach 100%?
Thank you! It helped me!

Hi. My external hard disc cannot be read by the system. Can I follow the same way? Please help me out.
When I reboot my computer after the process with TestDisk Windows goes into Scanning and Repairing Disk, and then just stays there for hours and hours. Is this normal?
Brother, i seriously need your help. External Hard disk suddenly stopped working. Not showing up in explorer. Detected in device manager. Disk Management shows Disk 2 : Unknown, unallocated. couldnt be initialized. because the device is not ready. EasyUs , Hetman, Minitool couldnt recover data. After hours of scan no partition detected. Can help me?
Hi,my external harddrive become RAW,how to recovery back?
Again follow the same method
Será que funciona para dHDD de 4TB sem perder os dados? No meu caso aparece: protetion partition GPT
Every company is trying to shove their $100 software down my throat. Thanks for being the solution! If only this video wasn't on like the 4th page of google results.
