if u delete a file or format a Partition from your computer, its contents aren't immediately destroyed.
Windows simply marks the hard drive space.
you can download some free recovery software to recover lost data.

Files you have deleted and then recently emptied from your Recycle Bin are often still present on your hard drive (or USB drive, or media card, etc..
and can be recovered using free file recovery software.
Important: You can greatly increase the chance of recovering a file by minimizing your computer use as soon as possible.
There are a a lot of commercial and free software out there that will let you do this.
Here are some FREEWARE/TRIALWARE that will let you recover files deleted from the Recycle Bin:1.
Recuva Recuva is the very best free file recovery software available, hands down.
It's very easy to use but has many optional advanced features as well.
Recuva can recover files from hard drives, external drives (USB drives, etc..
and memory cards.
Recuva can even undelete files from your iPod! Recuva will undelete files in Windows8,7, Vista, XP, Server2008/2003, and older Windows versions like2000, NT, ME and98.64-bit Windows versions are also supported.
There is also a64-bit version Recuva available.2.
Puran File Recovery Puran File Recovery is one of the better free file recovery programs I've seen.
It's very easy to use, will scan any drive that Windows sees, and has a lot of advanced options if you need them.
Puran File Recovery will even recover lost partitions if they haven't been overwritten yet.
Puran File Recovery does require installation.
Windows8,7, Vista, and XP are all supported operating systems.3.
Glary Undelete Glary Undelete is an excellent free file recovery program.
It's very easy to use and has one of the better user interfaces that I've seen.
The biggest advantages in Glary Undelete include the easy "Folders" view, a Windows Explorer-style view of recoverable files, and a prominent "State" indication for each file, suggesting how likely a successful file recovery will be.
One disadvantage of Glary Undelete is that installation is required before you can use it and it asks you to install a toolbar, which you can of course decline.
Aside from those facts, Glary Undelete is top notch.
Glary Undelete can recover files from hard drives and any removable media you might have including memory cards, USB drives, etc.
Glary Undelete is said to work in Windows Vista, XP,2003,2000, NT, ME,98, and95 but I had no problem recovering files with it in Windows7.4.
Pandora Recovery Pandora Recovery is another excellent free file recovery software program.
It's super easy to use and has the best wizard to help you undelete files that I've seen in any file recovery app.
Pandora Recovery lists support for Windows Vista, XP, Server2003, and2000 but it worked perfectly well for me in Windows7.
You will need to install Pandora Recovery to your hard drive which is a major reason I haven't ranked it higher than some other file recovery tools.5.
SoftPerfect File Recovery SoftPerfect File Recovery is another superb file undelete program.
It's very easy to search for recoverable files.
Anyone should be able to use this program with very little trouble.
SoftPerfect File Recovery will undelete files from hard drives, memory cards, etc.
Any device on your PC that stores data (except for your CD/DVD drive.
should be supported.
SoftPerfect File Recovery supports Windows Vista, XP, Server2008 &2003,2000, NT, ME,98, and95.
According to SoftPerfect,64-bit versions of Windows operating systems are also supported.
SoftPerfect File Recovery is a small,500KB, standalone file making the program very portable.
Feel free to run File Recovery from a USB drive or floppy disk.6.
Restoration The Restoration file recovery program is similar to the other free undelete apps on this list.
The thing I like most about Restoration is how incredibly simple it is to recovery files.
There are no cryptic buttons or complicated file recovery procedures - everything you need is on one, easy to understand program window.
Restoration can recover files from hard drives, memory cards, USB drives, and other external drives.
Restoration supports Windows Vista, XP,2000, NT, ME,98, and95.
I successfully tested Restoration with Windows Vista.
Like some of the other popular file recovery tools on this list, Restoration is small and does not need to be installed, giving it the flexibility to be run from a floppy disk or USB drive.7.
Avira UnErase Personal Avira UnErase Personal has to be one of the most simple free file recovery programs I've ever used.
After installation (there is no standalone version., you're a single click from seeing every deleted file on a drive.
Recovering a file with Avira UnErase Personal is a single click operation as well.
UnErase Personal can recover files from hard drives, USB drives, memory cards, and other similar sources.
According to Avira's documentation on UnErase Personal, the program should work with Windows XP and Windows2000 Pro only.
However, I also successfully tested Avira UnErase Personal with Windows Vista.8.
FreeUndelete FreeUndelete is self explanatory - it's free and it undeletes files! FreeUndelete is another great file recovery tool, very similar to other undelete utilities around this rank in my list.
The major advantage of FreeUndelete is its easy to use interface and "folder drill down" functionality (i.e.
files available for recovery are not listed in a big, unmanageable listing..
FreeUndelete will recover files from hard drives, memory cards, and other similar storage devices in or connected to your PC.
FreeUndelete supports all versions of Windows - Vista, XP, etc.
I successfully tested FreeUndelete with Windows Vista.9.
ADRC Data Recovery Tools ADRC Data Recovery Tools is another great, free file recovery program.
File recovery with this program is uncomplicated and could probably be accomplished by the average computer user without any kind of documentation.
ADRC Data Recovery Tools should be able to undelete files from any non-CD/DVD storage device like memory cards and USB drives, as well as hard drives, of course.
Data Recovery Tools officially supports Windows XP,2000, and95 but I successfully tested data recovery with this program on Windows Vista.
ADRC Data Recovery Tools is a standalone,132KB program making it a very portable file recovery tool that will easily fit on any removable media you might have.10.
OKIWA DataRecovery TOKIWA DataRecovery is an effective file recovery program and is very similar to many others on my list.
The best thing TOKIWA DataRecovery has going for it is its ease of use.
It has a single program window where you can scan for files to recovery, sort the files, and undelete them.
There are no complicated procedures at all.
TOKIWA DataRecovery can recover files from hard drives, memory cards, USB drives, and other external drives.
DataRecovery supports Windows Vista, XP,2003,2000, NT, ME,98, and95.
I successfully tested TOKIWA DataRecovery with Windows Vista.
TOKIWA DataRecovery is a standalone,412KB file making it a completely portable tool suitable for a USB drive or floppy disk.11.
Undelete Plus Undelete Plus is a great free file recovery program but the program could use a serious face lift.
The user interface needs work (e.g.
some prominent buttons don't seem to do much.
but overall it's an effective file recovery tool.
Undelete Plus can recover files from hard drives, external drives, and memory cards.
Any drive using any popular file system should be accessible by Undelete Plus.
Undelete Plus will undelete files in Windows Vista, XP, Server2003,2000, NT, ME,98, and95.
If you've been unsuccessful recovering files using other undelete programs on my list, try Undelete Plus.
I don't think it's the best file recovery program out there but it might be the one that helps get your file back.12.
PC Inspector File Recovery PC Inspector File Recovery is another good free file recovery program with an arguably "deeper" search for deleted files than other similar undelete programs.
PC Inspector File Recovery can recover files from most hard drives, external drives, and memory cards.
PC Inspector File Recovery supports Windows XP,2000, NT, ME, and98.
Windows Vista is not listed as a supported operating system.
I tested File Recovery with Vista and could not get the program to work properly.
I'd recommend trying PC Inspector File Recovery only if another, higher rated file recovery program didn't do the job for you.
The not-so-easy-to-use interface, lack of Vista support, and long hard drive scan times keep this file recovery app out of the Top10.13.
EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard is another great file undelete program.
Recovering files is very easy to do with just a few clicks.
My favorite aspect of EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard is that the user interface is structured much like Windows Explorer.
While that may not be everyone's ideal way to display files, it's a very familiar interface that most people are comfortable with.
EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard will undelete files from hard drives, optical drives, memory cards, and pretty much anything else that Windows sees as a storage device.
Please know that Data Recovery Wizard will only recover a total of1 GB of data before you'll need to upgrade.
I almost didn't include this program because of that limitation but since most situations call for undeleting much less than that, I'll let it slide.
Data Recovery Wizard supports Windows8,7, Vista, and XP, as well as Windows Server2012,2008, and2003.14.
Recover Files The aptly named Recover Files does just that and does it as well as any other average file recovery program.
Files located on hard drives, external drives, ZIP drives, memory cards, etc.
are all recoverable by Recover Files.
Anything that holds data that you can hook up to your computer is probably fair game for Recover Files.
Recover Files will undelete files in Windows Vista, XP, Server2003,2000, NT, ME,98, and95.
I tested the portable/standalone version of Recover Files in Vista.

In addition to the above answer.
I would say there is several applications that is used for data recovery.
Some are are free (also Open source) and some are commercial -that is requires buying a license to use them.
One of the powerful and Free app, is :(EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard Free).
It has many good features like it can recover formatted drives (Hard disks or USB thumb drives) and of course in your case the emptied Recycle Bin.
I strongly advice you to stop using your computer and get this application you can download it from here:http://www.easeus.com/datarecoverywizard/free-data-recovery-software.htm Then install it as you would do with other application , simply just follow the on-screen menu and pressing next till you finish the installation.
Then run the application by double-clicking its icon on the desktop, you will see a menu ; there is a large icon of a Recycle Bin .
Click that icon to start searching for your deleted files , then when the application finishes and displays a list of (Found files).
Just click and select a location to restore those files,remember to not overwrite the original ones, please select a another drive to recover your lost files.

files that are deleted in your computer or other hard drives can be recovered easily, even those files that been deleted in computer and then computer was being reformatted, it can still be recovered again and again all of it! just simply download the data recovery in a full version, don't use trial versions in internet for they can only recover files with limits.
Those are sucks dudes, better pay some for a better and nicer one.
Using full version of any data recovery software has no limits, only if you got more hard drives memory :) for those of you want some video tutorials of mine' search X @ u-tube thanks'....
