Is it possible to restore data after formatting?

Yes, in most cases the data can be restored after formatting the disk. However, the success of the operation depends on several factors:

1. Elapsed time since formatting: The sooner you start the data recovery process, the greater the chances of its successful completion.

2. Type and volume of the information carrier: Some types of carriers (SSD) have peculiarities of working with data, which can make it difficult or almost impossible to completely restore them.

3. Using new data: If, after formatting, new files were written to the disk or other read/write operations were performed, this may lead to overwriting of old information and significantly complicate its retrieval.

If you are sure that you need the help of a specialist in this area, it is recommended to consult such companies as "Kroll Ontrack" or "Stellar Data Recovery".
