Guys, it's urgent. I booted up my pc running windows 7 ultimate this morning, and found that out of the four partitions there, the last partition-Partition F turned up completely blank- 117 GB free of 117 GB!:-o It was strange, last night there were hardly 30 GBs left. Only I know the password, so no one else could have turned on the pc. I've lost ALL my data on that partition- that even included world of warcraft and my school project files.:-( What do I do?? :-? Real tough situation building up here! Please help! I need all my files back!

p.s- I tried Restoration. It simply said- no files were found. Strange is the fact that the other partitions were intact, as I had left them.
specs-
intel pentium dual core cpu e5400
seagate 500gb
2gb ddr2 ram

Are you sure? It seems like someone just formatted it. Try Free Undelete/Unformat software to see if they can recover the data.

In case Recuva doesn't help, your best bet is to use EASEUS Data Recovery. It's not free. :rolleyes:
But if you didn't format the drive, its The best.

Recuva is a great app. Still I can't remember that app which I used back in 2006 to recover my data. That time never thought an app could be possible to do a recovery job, but after recovering I was amazed for a long time. I can feel how the OP is feeling now :)
