Re: What happens when I remove a partition? Can I recover the contents?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

If you format the drive then the data's which were lot are absolutely
recoverable but if you format and install something else on the drive then
those prevous data's gets overwritten but still recoverable but 100%
recovery is never attained in such cases.

Once I formatted my computers c driver(FAT32) to NTFS and installed Win2003
server previously I had win2000. and I managed to recover 60% data only.

So trying is worth.

utility that may be able to recover the deleted partition.

Deleting a partition does not remove the contents of a drive, but it DOES
'disconnect' the tables that point to the files and that keep track of
the
clusters used. A data recovery program can be used to reconstruct the
partition table.
