if my hard drive has been reformatted can i recover any lost photos?

Question

if so is there any program i can use to do this

Answer 1

To prevent this in the future, save your photos to disk every now and then. I arrage mine in folders by disc on my computer. Each disc folder has sub folders. This makes things easier to find, and easy to save on disc.
For instance, Disc 1 has folders named, Kids, around home, scenery, Trip to Aquarium, etc.
Good Luck!

Answer 2

The Answer is Yes. You can recover deleted photos videos document media audios and other files and folders from Windows computer hard drive, or files lost after desktop/laptop hard disk reformat.

This is because that deleting or formatting won't make file's data on computer hard drive erased permanently. These file's data are just not accessible and hence the files are not readable. If you have deleted important files on your computer hard drive, the files are not deleted, as a matter of fact, just that index entry, FAT, or NTFS file system marked the storage of files as free so that new data can use the space to save the files. If you did hard disk reformat, computer system rewrited the FAT table or NTFS table which manages all the file storage process.

The best way to recover deleted formatted files and folders from PC internal hard drive is to download a hard drive data recovery program.

Answer 3

When you 'delete'information from your computer's harddrive, you basically tell the computer that it can write over that information. The computer, for all intents and purposes, does not think that there is anything there, even if there is. Once it overwrites that information, it's gone for good. You can try taking the HDD into a shop or downloading programs to recover the info, but if it's been overwritten then there is no chance to recover it. Ironically, by downloading the programs to your harddrive you may overwrite the specific info you were trying to get back...although any time you take a box to the shop there's a chance they'll drop it or otherwise damage it. Good luck, either way.
