re: Data recovery for XP after qick format. Monday, May 11, 2009 at 8:51 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by C K (6910 messages posted) I would have to agree with MartinM.. I use professional software that you have to pay for, as it automates where ever possible so there is less user interaction (which makes it faster), but if you have already installed an operating system on the drive, it may be slim to none rescuing any data. Just depends on what your time is worth with no guarantee of success. Rescuing any data at all depends on not using the drive at all or writing to it if you realiized your mistake after formating it. The more the drive is used, the less chances of getting any of your data back. Written in response to: Data recovery for XP after qick format.
