How to recover data from deleted partition on hard drive with freeware?

Partition Loss

There is always a serious situation exists if your computer will start and cannot see a drive partition or physical drive. It may cause by deleting, virus attacking, the structure of the partition is damaged and so on. For the partition or physical drive to be visible to the Operating System the following conditions must apply:

  • Partition/Drive can be found via Partition Table
  • Partition/Drive boot sector is safe

If the above conditions are true, the OS can read the partition or physical drive parameters and display the drive in the list of the available drives.

Beginning with FAT16 and FAT32 systems complex partitioning was created so as to allow specialized applications to run. This process improved further with the advent of the NTFS file system. Of course as things evolve they become more sophisticated and this often means that they are more prone to problems. In the case of windows partitions they can be lost, overwritten or simply damaged by a virus.

Once this happens it can result in a semi-catastrophic failure. These problems create a genuine need for a quality program for partition recovery software to recover data from deleted or lost partition on hard disk.

If the file system is damaged (Root, FAT area on FAT12/FAT16/FAT32, or system MFT records on NTFS) the drive's content might not be displayed and we might see errors like "MFT is corrupted", or "Drive is invalid" ... If this is the case it is less likely that you will be able to restore your data. Do not despair, EaseUS partition recovery software can help you recover data from deleted or lost partition on hard disk.
