Will restore the formatted flash drive
Data recovery from a formatted flash drive is possible, but not guaranteed. Here are some steps you can try:
1. Do not use the flash drive after formatting: The more you use the flash drive after formatting, the lower the probability of successful data recovery.
2. Use specialized data recovery software: There are many software tools (for example, Recuva or EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard) designed to restore deleted files and disk partitions.
3. Connect your flash drive to the computer via the USB port and run the selected data recovery program.
4. Select the scanning mode "Deep scan" or the analysis of all available partitions/disk spaces on the device
5. Wait for the scanning process to complete – it may take some time depending on the size of your flash drive and the speed of your computer
6. When the program finishes its search, it should show a list of found files.
7. Preview each file to check its integrity before saving.
8 If all the data was found and you are satisfied with the results, choose a place to save the recovered files. It is not recommended to save on the same flash drive.
It is important to remember that successful data recovery depends on several factors: the time since formatting (the faster the recovery process begins after deletion or formatting, the greater the chance of success), the volume of new data recorded on the disk after formatting, as well as the state of the drive itself.
