I was planning to shift from Windows 10 to Ubuntu. Usually when you install new version of Windows, you do that in C:/ drive.(100GB) The other drives (d:/ and e:/) about 350GB are are not touched.

So when I tried to install Ubuntu.. I did guess a question of formatting the disk. But little did I know that the whole Hard drive will be formatted. After installing Ubuntu, all my data from d:/ and e:/ are also erased. Somebody please help me out. :( :(

  • Rule 1) Do not write to the disk until you have recovered your files. I accidentally installed Lubuntu Live, overwriting a 4TB disk filled with all my old movies. The only thing I could find to recover the files that really worked was EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard. Unfortunately it is a Windows program. – C.S.Cameron Sep 29 '20 at 08:17

You can use testdisk to recover lost Partitions/Partition Tables. install it using sudo apt-get install testdisk.

check the guide how to recover them here

Other guide: here

Note: that guide is for recovering the files inside it. not the OS.
