Restoring NTFS partition info on a flash drive

[Danith]

So my friend called me saying he was formatting his dads computer and at the 'chose which partition to install windows on' part he accidentally chose the flash drive that was plugged in and erased the partition. He said he didn't format though... How do I get it back? Really no experience with this

Hi, Danith,

Try one of the free Data Recovery packages at majorgeeks.com.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the link, I'll try that ntfsundelete program. I'm not willing to pay money for this.. Just in case, I think I'll create an image of it with my linux box before doing anything.
