mnairaland:
My previous PC got bad and I had to move my files to another pc.As the fellow who was helping me to move the files from my previous bad laptop harddisk to my new laptop hard disk using a usb adapter(or whatever be its proper name), I told him to copy from a particular disk first.
On hearing that, he unplugged the connecting usb cable and replugged it.That unplugging of the usb cable without ejecting the device first, led to the hard disk getting corrupted.The system kept requesting for the formatting of the disk before use.

I have used attemoted to recover my files by using different recovery software to no avail.

Unfortunately, the backup disc recently got virus infected and formatted it.So, at this time, I have no back up for the files.

The files in the corrupted disk represent about 3yrs programming work and I cannot afford to lose them.

Please,I need any help in recovering my files.If you know or have any means I can reliably use to recover it please do kindly help me wth it.

If you have been in the same situation and
you were able to recover your files do kindly tell me how you did it.

If you have or have used or know a tried and tested file recovery software,please what is its name.

In short, if you know or have any means to
help me please oblige me with it.


Thanks you.

Hope that you'll be able to recover your work.
Also, you said that you lost your coding stuff. So accept this as a friendly tip so this doesn't happen to you in the future: use GIT and store your codes at GitHub.com or BitBucket.org (github is the most popular one but doesn't allow private gits for free, while bitbucket allows unlimited free gits). It's easy to learn and will save you from this kind of situation plus many more.
