After installing Xubuntu 12.10, I lost all my files, but I only wanted to delete all Operative Systems, not my files.

How can I recover my files and folders? Is there a program I can use for this?

  • Did you install 12.10 over top a current installation? Did you reformat the hard drive during the installation process? – Mordoc Mar 21 '13 at 18:36

  • I don't think we can help you unless we know if you installed over top or reformatted the drive. It sounds like you reformatted your drive meaning it will be difficult to recover your data.
