We get heaps of threads on this, so lets make a nice organised list of programs people can use for backing up, restoring, and recovering data.
For a quick start to this, some pointers.
1. If you formatted a drive and did NOT write to it, recovery is possible. If you installed any data over it (such as windows, or copying files to it) then you need to restore a backup, or accept that you will have lost some, most, or all of your data.
2. Backups are not perfect - for example, a virus that killed your machine could also be in your backup. try and backup your important data first, not your operating system and useless files - and store it in more than one place if possible (for example, an external hard drive AND on DVD)
Now to the programs:
Free Data recovery software
Piriform Recuva - Highly recommended by TPU users, myself included.
The following were listed by 95viper in another thread, i dont know if he's reccomending them or just listed them.
Roadkil's Unstoppable Copier A nice one.
UNDELETE 360
Free File Recovery 1.1
