I'm running a dual-boot windows-ubuntu. Yesterday, I ran the following command :

sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sda  
sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1  
sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sda2

I thought it would help me to format my usb stick but when I tried to access my windows again, the partition was no longer bootable. And I couldn't access the windows data from ubuntu.

Does someone know a way to have access to my windows back or at least how to get my data ?

Sorry for any english mistake, it's not my native language

    You formatted your HDD. There is no way to cancel it. You can try to save some data using testdisk. And you will have to reinstall OSes. – Pilot6 Sep 01 '16 at 10:49

For getting the data back try running a live ubuntu disk and select your drive with data and copy your data to your backup drive.
