In Nautilus under Ubuntu 12.04, I accidentally selected several directories on a partition and deleted them at once (unfortunately, I deleted them by Shift+Delete such that they don't remain in Trash). I haven't written any new data to that partition yet since the deletion. I wonder what ways I can try to recover them?
TestDisk is powerful free data recovery software! It was primarily designed to help recover lost partitions and/or make non-booting disks bootable again when these symptoms are caused by faulty software, certain types of viruses or human error (such as accidentally deleting a Partition Table).

I had FOUR NTFS partitions on my drive. One on which Windows 7 was installed (C Drive) and the other contained my data (D Drive) (E Drive) (F drive) .
During Ubuntu installation I chose to install Ubuntu and erase my existing OS. When Ubuntu was installed, I was shocked to see no partition. All my data was gone.
I have an Acer Aspire One from the AO725 series, with a 320gb hard drive, preinstalled with Windows 7 home Premium.
Could someone please help me recover my lost files. I accidently deleted them ( from the recycle bin too ) I am running dual boot with windows 7 i believe, and i have tried the testdisk and undelete process. neither have seemed to work for me. i lost about 200Gb of audio and videos. I believe that my main problem is that i didnt use the system partition to store all those files.
I was installing a new hardrive and formatted the wrong 2TB drive. It was originally all ext4 and I deleted that partition and formated 1.9TB ext4 and the last GB Swap. Nothing has been written to either partition.
Is it possible to recover the folder structure or at least the file names? PhotoRec started to recover files but that won't work.
I have 2 partitions on my macbook, but I can't mount one of them.
