Overview of Active@ Partition Recovery for Windows

What Happened to My Data?

When partition (volume, drive, etc...) is deleted from a hard drive, two systems are notified:

  • The partition record in the Partition Table (which is a part of MBR) is removed

  • Space where partition was located is labeled as 'unoccupied'. The data itself is not removed

In the event of an accidental partition deletion we strongly recommend that you perform the recovery operation as soon as possible. If any new partition is created instead on the same space and some information is written there, there is a chance that the writing process may allocate some data in this 'unoccupied space' thus damaging you data located on the partition deleted previously.
