Aright Im in a stickey situation and I really need some help. I have 2 external portable HDD and one of them I was trying to format to FAT32. Every time it was formating it get to about 50% and get some error and crash on me. So I'd have to go to Disk Manger and delete the corrupt volume and start a new one in order to try to format it again. In any case around the 3 time this happend I accidently clicked on my other HDD and clicked delete volume on my external HDD that has all my stuff on it, all my files, photos, movies, music etc. I have used a bunch of free programs but none to my luck have worked. I know the data is retrievable because using a program called "recover my files" it found most of my files if not all. Only catch is that save button has been withdrawn or temporarily disabled untill you purchase an activation key for $59.99. All the youtube and google search choices for data recovery want money and I cant justify paying these money hungry fiends for a program I will never use again. Now if anyone knows a solution or quick and painless method for me to retrieve this data could you please help me out.
