Just deleted the wrong partition in windows. Was my 1tb of ps3 ISO’s ffs. Running easus partition recovery now.

How fucked am I?
 
Can’t believe I clicked wrong one lol. Took me weeks to download all these on my iPhone lol
 
Shit. Free trial doesn’t recover. What’s best free software ?
 
Tried minitool and selected pro trial and still requiring paying. Trying lazesoft now.
 
If you know the exact partition parameters (start, length, type), you can just recreate the partition. Especially easy if it was the only one. Some partitioning programs can also detect deleted partitions, I think, but I can't name any off hand.

The filesystem information is stored separate from the partition information, so as long as you don't create the partition with the start past the beginning of the filesystem, or reformat that space, your files and file names should be intact.
 
Was actually transferring to a larger drive. Forgot they have to be mbr formatted and clicked the wrong drive.

Just FYI, I've had good luck with all Easus software I've tried. Bought Easus Partition Maser Technician lifetime license like 10 years ago that has a recovery built in. Had worked many times we've tried it.
I run their backup software at home and on small business servers.

Only seen two issues, a computer it won't backup it thinks has a corrupted file system but that I've found no corruption on. Another person I backed up the computer to a USB drive, checked it directly after, get home to find the data couldn't be read. Considering the software runs every day on dozens of machines I control, that's not bad.
