qtparted deleted my partition how to recover my data

you need to recover the whole partition? or specific files?

do you have additional hard drive?

I can't help but do have a similar problem. I installed Ubuntu on my second drive on the assuption it would leave the dos (Windows) files intact. However, it appears they are gone or, is it just that I can't view the folders and files. I need to get them all back before my dear bride finds out I've dumped all her pictures :-(

sorry but i dont have another hdd,also i want to recover most of the files and that partition that i was having.it had movies,files and docs.19gb of data is not waste it important indeed.maybe i can forgive some movies but then i have files on it

so you'll have a problem, because when you'll be retrieving data, and saving it to the same hard drive - so you can eventually lose a lot of data, so i'd suggest you to use

and in settings remember to check desired extensions

but it is also a good idea, to plug USB pendrive and save recovered data onto it

good luck
