GetDataBack is a GUI program that is also quite powerful, but I haven't used it in many years, so YMMV. And it requires purchase to actually copy out the "maybe recoverable" data. Source: over 2 years ago
You tried to absolutely useless tools. It does not mean better software can actually recover the data but it should at least be tried before making assumptions about recoverability of the data. Scan with for example R-Studio (r-tt.com) and GetDataBack (runtime.org). If these come up empty handed as well then it does not look too good. Source: over 3 years ago
It sounds like you used an external drive for Media Creation Tool target. Unfortunately this writes enough data to the drive to largely overwrite file system structures that were on that drive. It depends on for example file system somewhat if partial file system based recovery is possible, DMDE might not be best tool for that. If file system was NTFS you may want to try GetDatBack from runtime.org. Source: over 3 years ago
There's Zorin OS Pro: https://zorin.com/os/pro/ And elementaryOS is kinda-sorta paid (you can pay $0 too): https://elementary.io/ Finally, while this is not a proper distro as such, ParterdMagic makes for an excellent rescue option: https://partedmagic.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
You could, for example, boot your computer to an operating system which resides on a USB stick, and then examine the health of your existing drive.... Booting to something like Parted Magic, since it has most of the tools you'd need for "fixing" hard drives, already included with the OS. All that would take, is a USB stick, and a computer to download and mount the image on the stick (with a program like YUMI). Source: almost 2 years ago
But, ranting aside, you can use either * GParted Live, or * PartedMagic To boot into a linux OS and modify the drive's partitions. Specifically you'll want to move the “D:” disk partition to make the unallocated space next to the disk partition you want to extend. Source: almost 2 years ago
