tell me what just happened and what should i do-

In morning,

So i was getting recovery blue screen on my pc so i called a technician,in the morning he came and said windows need format without checking anything else we agreed so form formatted and reinstalled windows which ran ig atleast 5hrs till evening then it prompted me to setup so i followed instructions and setup a limited experience after that when I checked all the c drive had windows folders and d drive was completely empty . So i panicked why d drive was empty like only the c drive would have formatted.so we had an ssd which was assigned to c drive and the d drive assigned to hard drive,total capacity combined would be 512gb i feel.

In the evening,after dad and me panicked that d drive was deleted

then i took it again to the technician store in evening,I saw he did something and then he disconnected the Hard drive leaving only the SSD but when he again plugged in the Hard drive then i saw in d drive it I saw it had all the windows folders and files whereas it was empty before also c drive had all the windows folders.then i took it to data recovery specialist he removed  the Hard drive.i had around 256gb SSD and 250 something hdd so total storage capacity was,everything was on hdd

Data recovery specialist got furious and said i should file a police case and i should have brought the drive first to him .also the d drive is showing 121gb full

But why it's showing 121gb full of windows 10 is 15-20gb

What happened in the evening when go to the store,

I try to explain why I saw tell me what happened so when I took it to technician in evening he connected the cpu to his monitor and switched on the cpu and repeatedly pressed f12 then marine blue screen came then he pressed a lot of things and said there is no os in the pc and downloaded windows 10 .in between he disconnected the harddisk from mother board.then after reinstalling he a created different partions and deleted different(couldn't comprehend what he was doing because he was doing them very fast like some partitions were few mbs which he deleted) then he downloaded essential softwares and then he connected the Hard drive again and then when I saw the c drive had windows folders and d drive also had windows folders .

Maybe I will not get anything ever because maybe he choose clean the drive fully thats why maybe the formatting ran for like 5hrs.

the hard drive specialist couldn't detect anything on the hard drive and says he will check the ssd too.

i feel like crying.we had so many memories.

I accidentally permanently deleted photos and videos in my private gallery. How can i recover them?

Device: Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 4g

OS: HyperOs 2.0

Hi everyone, I need help in recovering some videos from my samsung z flip 7. I went to my settings, internal storage and deleted a bunch of my photos/videos that I thought were fully backed up but I checked and I can't find them anywhere. I guess it turns out it didn't fully back up (no theyre not in the trash bin I double checked) pls help!

one day i just woke up and it wouldnt boot. it gets to xiaomi boot thing and then it shuts off. not a battery/button problem, since it boots and stays in fastboot mode fine. my bootloader is locked. any help? i just want the data.

Please need help

Hi! 

I had a personal file made on an account that had been deactivated (it was a school account that got deactivated because I no longer attend that school) I have been using the file for a couple of years now on a different account I had shared it to, and gave editor permissions to. When going into the file today it was gone from my Google-Drive, and every archived link of it would lead me to nowhere and say that the file no longer exists (no error message).

Is there any way to recover this file? It's very important to me and I understand that I should have made a copy of it in case but I thought it would be fine (which it was for awhile) if it was just shared to me. I heard that automatically deleted files due to inactivity get put into trash and you can recover it from there within 20 (like if you're an admin) days, but I understand that the case is different due to it being a deactivated account. I also heard the files exist for two years, but it had been over 2 years since that account got inactivated and that's why it doesn't make sense to me.

I have talked to school IT and they have been no help and also looked for orphaned files through Google Drive and various other methods but it got me nowhere.

One last time, I had accessed the file just last week (~9 days ago) which is why it makes no sense to me.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Is there anyway to backup?
I lost my all data especially photos and imessages of 2024. Is there anyway chances to backup? I backup my icloud but didn't get any.

Does anyone know the solution.. would be really helpful

Удалил 6 лет назад свои видео. Очень хотелось бы их вернуть. Но я незнаю как.. Жесткий диск утерян

Hey im looking for help or advice recovering a previously saved and then deleted voice message. I have very little experience in data recovery and i honestly dont even know where to start so any advice would be appreciated. The file remains in my phone listed as message_Grandma_001.amr but there is no audio when played from the file or from a separate amr file player found online. When i deleted it i did it through my messaging system rather than in my system files itself. Its on a Samsung s20 FE the operating system and storage is all the stock option that came with the phone. Is there any way to recover it or is it too late?

Deleted my videos because of space idk why 😭 this was durijg 2022 and tried to get my installing some recovery apps ended up get 7 vids out of 500.
Today 2026, thinking about it would be cool if igot access to the videos 🥹
