I reformatted my windows xp recently and i forgot to back up my files.Can i get my files back free?

Q. I reformatted my windows xp recently and i forgot to back up my files.Can i get my files back by using free softwares?

A. There is a slim chance that there is a freeware program that can recover your lost files. There is a number of conditions to this however.

- Formatting a hard drive normally erases only the File Allocation Tables. so the data is still on the drive.
- If you have not put any files on the drive since the format, including Windows, the files may yet be intact.
- The demo of Active @ UNERASER maybe able to tell you if there are any files recoverable. (I've not used the program)
- File Recovery 4 (freeware) is another program (I've not used) that can recover lost files.

If you do get your files back, or not, I'd recommend you start backing up your data regularly. External HDD's, USB sticks, and CD's are reasonably cheap compared to the cost (dollars and time) to recovering lost data.

For other recovery programs search for "freeware file recovery" via your favorite search engine.

forgot backup data before attempting for OS recovery. How to get the data back?
Q. I have forgotten back up data in my HP pavilion dv6 laptop with Vista operating system and attempted for OS recover (F11), unfortunately i lost my data. Any help or guidance on recovering data is really great.

A. You can often successfully recover deleted files from a PC, phone or camera memory card or USB Memory stick, it just depends on whatâs happened since the files were deleted.

When you delete files the data itself isnât deleted, just the index entry that says where the data for those files is located. The space containing the deleted files is also now marked as free space so it is available to the system for any new files to be written there instead.

If and when that happens, then it becomes too late to recover your deleted files so it is very, very important to not save any new files or data to the device concerned.

If the deleted files are on a memory card or USB memory stick, just donât save any new files to it.

One of the easiest ways to see if you can recover deleted files is to try some file recovery software. There are many such products available, both commercial and free â also of varying quality!

A good tip is to try the free trial version of a good commercial product that will scan the device for deleted files and show you exactly what files can be recovered as thumbnail images in the preview screen. At least that will show you if you can recover the deleted files at all or if itâs too late already.
