Beginners Guides: Recovering data from disk part 2

Hard Drive Data Recovery  

NTFS

First sector of the NTFS partition is the boot sector of partition reserved. It contains information that the operating system, the result can read can. Without it there is no access to the partition.


Nature, boot sector of NTFS stores a backup copy of the last sector allocation, which can provide rehabilitation programs to restore order. The answer is also known as FAT boot sector and in the first sector is to be shared. The difference is that fat does not take a backup of the data is much more difficult, again ..

The first file in an NTFS partition, Master File Table (MFT), whose name has all the characteristics and locations of other files on the partition. This is the operating system access to individual files.

NTFS stores a backup copy of the file. Data recovery software will attempt to access or use the restore files on the partition MFT.

FAT partition with something called out, suddenly the File Allocation Table (FAT). Fat is also a backup disk to restore the software. The main disadvantage is FAT, MFT is positioned in relation to the partition function, so that if the area is damaged, recovery can be difficult.

If you delete a file (Windows garbage out), both file systems just a sign of the deleted file. No data from the disk, but it takes place is free. Therefore, if you accidentally delete a file, you do not give a great opportunity to return more information, write to the disk.

In my case it was both my NTFS partitions from reality. When I met with FDISK, the information on the status of the waste, have written, including the two partitions. The first partition (where my article about him) the boot sector of partition, ie it can not usually get lost by the operating system. Another section of the file system has been replaced very important, and that will not start, but fully accessible unit to another computer.

Fortunately, there is a way to solve this problem and to collect!

First a word of warning: all processes throughout the software needed to solve the problems and their data as files or accidentally deleted partitions. If the disk is not a physical problem, if it makes strange noises, shaking, noise and smoke is not applicable here. Turn the computer off, unplug it and contact a data recovery service if the files are needed.

Try a self-service on the hard disk can only worsen the situation.

Steps back

The first rule of thumb, if you have lost data, not interested in writing a different drive! This rule applies to all situations ..

If you have accidentally deleted a partition, not create a new partition, leave blank.

If you delete the files in the trash you do not need (if possible) in order to save something to disk. The reason for this is that hard drives does not really remove anything, or share any information. When you delete a file system, only the selected disk is removed. If the system needs more information on the hard drive, scan the file to disk "removed" from space and be happy to copy them. If this happens, you're in big trouble.

The same rule applies to double partitions, shows that bypass the partition information on dealing with the operating system space. If you notice in all this, it seems that the allocation to have disappeared.

So, if there is no information about the partition, the data can be read by the operating system. This does not mean that the information is not there, but I can not see. Data Recovery programs do not have these problems.

What I did was wish FDISK to ensure the integrity of the person, the model data in some areas, writes. Of course, in my case, many of these sites containing information about partitions and / or critical system files. The result was a section missing due to damaged boot sector, and will not start (but readable) to install XP. The good news? What I can (almost) everything back.

Here's how.

The first and best thing you can do when data loss is to ensure that data is not stored on the device. Of course, if you fried sharing, can not use the operating system. The best solution in this situation is to move the disk to another computer, preferably one that uses the same file system as the damaged area (and the same operating system or later.) Sectionfor Guides See sources transferred to another computer.

Transfer hard drive to another computer has the advantage to prevent two devices from accidentally writing, and perhaps only to retrieve data from the CD in Windows Explorer, the file structure.

If it is damaged or deleted operating system files necessary, but the data remains intact for Windows partition does not start. Hard disks are of different operating system, the darkness is to be read.

This was another difficult the XP partition can be used after the move, the entire physical hard drive into another computer.

File Recovery Programs

If you can not resist the means to physically move the disk to the temptation to reinstall your operating system. There are several software tools that let the computer use a different operating system and contribute to try to recover the files.

The best way to access files on your hard disk operating system is toast, restart the computer a DOS boot floppy, then use the DOS program, the restoration of files, such as testdisk supports, is less than the bottom.

Note that if you make a hard disk with a partition already bootable, file recovery are more difficult now. Most recycling programs is the place to copy the recovered data, and if you drive with the same data loss, you do not need a guarantee that they destroyed more information in their possession. This is a much better idea to get a new hard drive in the existing system of installation and commissioning of a new operating system, or if found on another computer and they lost on your hard drive.

However, there are a number of programs, such as "Winternals Disk Commander" and "ERD Commander", the system boots directly from a DOS or an alternative operating system, and then restore the file. None of these programs are free.

If you installed the hard drive to another computer, or when adding a new hard disk is a separate operating system you have on your computer has several advantages: First, you can lose the data in the darkness lost files typically use the Windows Explorer. It does not work if the partitions do not see information of the operating system "has changed the logical drives.

Second, you can play safely in the recovery of files, and now has a different hard drive, set the recovery without loss of data source (now lost) device.

Freeware Recovery Plan

If you have problems know with data recovery software to help businesses, that something, rehabilitation, that the people is to pay money. In this context, freeware and shareware, blades are rare.

There are several options to make the list. Read carefully before deciding the next step.

File Recovery Windows XP

Most of this article applies to lost data accidentally deleted partition disappeared and unity. That's all right, but if you want only a few files that were deleted? After the garbage? All is not lost. A wide range of applications that can penetrate the history of the drive and restore the deleted items.

Played at the beginning of this section is the file from the Windows drive away is not removed from the disk. Instead, it is marked as deleted. The next time Windows stores data on disk, to the deleted files to keep as free space, which can be copied. It is therefore important to get the disk activity to a minimum while trying to the data. It is therefore necessary to save the installation and use of data recovery software on a different partition files that try to be as much as possible.

Undelete programs to search only for files clearly marked and provides the ability to reconstitute it. Simple and reliable right to pass up, after removing the original file. Probably, at which point the files that public institutions will be surprised.

Let's see some free data recovery:

Recovering deleted files from PC Inspector File Recovery

This free program is a versatile, many tasks of recovery, including recovery of deleted files. Let's see how it is used to retrieve accidentally deleted files with the child. Note that PC Inspector you can recover files from FAT and NTFS formatted drives do not work .
