Clean the Whole Hard Disk Accidentally While Installing Windows
While installing Windows on my computer, I accidentally clean the whole C drive. After cleaning, I noticed that the entire hard drive had been cleaned and that 498 GB of the 500 GB had been set aside for use. Can I recover my data from the C drive?
