Many people are under the impression that it is impossible to recover files after formatting by reloading your Windows operating system. While this is true when using a poor quality data recovery tool, if you choose a file recovery program from Remo Software you’ll be able to easily recover files from hard drive storage that has been reformatted.

Bear in mind that it is always best to attempt file recovery before a hard drive has completely crashed or you have reloaded Windows onto that computer. But sometimes our circumstances do not allow for this. Other times we simply forget and in our haste to put our computer back to operating condition reload our Windows operating system first. Remo Software’s data recovery tools will allow you to scan your computer’s hard drive in just minutes and locate any files that were marked as deleted by the reinstallation of Windows process. Bear in mind that downloading and installing any program onto a computer that has just been reloaded with Windows incurs a risk of overwriting the sectors of the hard drive which held the files you wished to recover in the first place.

Attempting to recover files doubly deleted

While most software for file recovery can locate and recover accidentally deleted files, recovery of files deleted on a crashed hard drive or deleted files on a drive that has been reformatted is a far more difficult process. Only the most powerful data recovery tools can recover files after what amounts to this double deletion process. If you are attempting to recover deleted files that have been recently removed from your hard drive that subsequently crashed or onto which you have recently reloaded your Windows operating system, you’ll need to take a very systematic approach to finding and rescuing those deleted files.

Begin by downloading onto a working Windows based PC the Remo Software data recovery tool for Windows. Next you will need to connect by means of a cable the crashed hard drive to the motherboard of your working PC onto which you have installed the Remo Software. This is far more simple than it sounds and instructions as to how to do this are included with your software installation package. You can then open the data recovery program and direct it to scan through the crashed hard drive. Even though the hard drive was unable to open using its own operating system, the combination of the working PC and the powerful data recovery software program from Remo will allow you to do so. Within minutes the software will scan through your entire hard drive and return to you a list of all existing and recently deleted files.

The possibility of recovering files after disk reformatting

When your computer suffers a hard drive crash, you are usually able to recognize the problem based upon your computer’s inability to start up and load Windows. Most often you’ll be faced with what is known as the Windows blue screen of death, or basically a Windows error screen. Usually the message given states that one or several important operating system files used to access your computer’s hard drive and hence load Windows have been lost or corrupted. More specifically, the error message says the files are missing. That can mean just about anything. The only valid solution is to reload your Windows operating system, but before this general consensus holds that one must recover all of their files locked away on that inaccessible internal hard drive.

There are quality data recovery programs that will allow one to do this and if given the choice this is the best path to take. But should you not have access to those programs and wish to use a conventional data recovery program, you will need to reload your Windows operating system and then use a data recovery program to recover deleted files after formatting. Data recovery after formatting is not the best choice as the percentage of recoverable files tends to diminish after we reload Windows. Still, it is a workable option should you need to reload Windows and start your computer as soon as possible.

A viable means of Windows partition recovery

Usually, when dealing with a Windows based personal computer, a partition refers to an entire hard drive. At least that was the case up until a few years ago when people and manufacturers began dividing large hard drives into smaller segments. This allowed for more secure storage of records by compartmentalizing the hard drive and for several versions of operating systems to be loaded onto one computer. This creates the ability to dual boot a computer. Another advantage to separating a hard drive into smaller size partitions is that in the event of a data loss one can recover files from FAT partition and NTFS spaces in Windows individually. This saves a great deal of time and allows the user to exercise greater control over the entire data recovery process. To recover lost partitions in Windows based personal computers all you will need is a quality data recovery software program. These third party programs such as those offered by Remo software quickly scan a hard drive partition of 100 GB or more in just minutes returning to the user a view of all existing and recoverable recently deleted files.

Data recovery on multiple hard drive types

The best word one can use to describe an external hard drive is finicky. These large drives made by companies such as Maxtor and western digital are extremely cost effective and helpful. When you have an otherwise working computer with a limited size drive such as a dell inspiron using an 80 GB hard drive and don’t want to replace a computer you can simply plug in one of these USB external hard drives and add to your computer’s hard drive storage a quick 500 GB. But as we first stated, external hard drives can be a bit fussy and finicky. They are prone to file loss for no obvious reason whatsoever and as with any external hard drive when you delete files from it the deletion bypasses the Windows recycle bin. Therefore you are not given a quick opportunity to restore a file you had actually meant to keep.

To recover data from external hard drive storage that has been lost due to access corruption or accidental deletion simply download the data recovery program onto your PC’s internal hard drive and direct that program to scan through the external drive. A quick scan of a 500 GB external drive can usually be completed in just a few minutes. That search will almost always return at least 95% of all recently deleted files and present them on a list for recovery. Make sure to purchase a data recovery program that also includes in its application the ability to recover files from crashed hard drive storage. This will allow you to recover existing and deleted files on your computer’s internal drive from a remote computer as well as recover deleted files on connected devices.
