guys i have a very serious problem here, recently my hardrive got currupted from recent hardware crash now i didnt know whats going on so i reinstalled windows on the drive to retrieve all my files BUT i did not format the drive as soon as i got windows to work all my files were gone
iv basicaly lost all my files ,250 gig worth i ussually do backups but i really didnt have time or the space to do it. now i really need help in retrieving my files iv done research but everything i have tried only half works or fails completly i was wondering if anyone here was an expert with these things.
the stuff that is lost is really important to me like i mean passwords pictures software that i cant get again so anyhelp will be appreciated.
(the stupidest thing i done was reinstall windows i know but i wasnt thinking and did not have the knowledge at the time .
