I recently had a hard drive that was giving me complications, so I decided to format, but before doing that, I took off all the pictures that were deemed important and thought everything was alright, but after formatting, I realized I had not backup my documents (xls,doc etc).
I’m wondering now if there is any way for me to get these files back, because they are very important and vital. I’ve tried the paid version of power data recovery, but it only gave me corrupted files and stated that I not have the permission to open the files. Currently, I’m running Pc Inspector, GetDataBack and Easeus Data Recovery Wizard, hoping that one of them will turn something up for me. Do you have any suggestions or procedure I could go through, in order to get some these files back, if not all of them?
