The computer hard disk prompts: "Not formatted", what should I do?
You can use this tutorial as an independent data recovery case for the "partition prompt formatting" failure type, and it is also a reference article for all soft failure data recovery needs such as file deletion and file loss.
Do not click "Yes" when you encounter the formatting prompt, otherwise the data recovery effect of the FAT32 formatted partition will be greatly reduced.
If you've accidentally formatted it, you can still try to protect the faulty partition from being overwritten and causing further damage.
First of all, we open the J: drive to view it, and it prompts that it cannot be accessed. J: \ parameter is incorrect ▼
Open the K: disk again to view, prompting "The disk in the drive is not formatted. Do you want to format it now?"▼
- Of course not.

DiskGenius provides powerful deleted and formatted data recovery, let's use it directly to try recovery and see if we can recover data from our unformatted partition?
Right click on the first unformatted partition and select File Recovery ▼
Since the prompt is not formatted, we will press DiskGenius' default "misformatted file recovery" option.
The partition format is also NTFS by default, unless you think the default is wrong, you don't need to modify it, just click the "Start" button ▼
Start searching for recovered files, DiskGenius displays the search progress ▼
After DiskGenius searches sector 6291456, the number of files found appears.
The directory of the standard Windows NTFS file system starts from sector 6291456, and the file will appear only after scanning this ▼
DiskGenius scans and analyzes very quickly. After the scan, it returns directly to the file directory list interface, and all the file content directories in the partition come out.
Select a file, copy it out, and verify it (of course, you can also choose to restore all) ▼
After setting the path where DiskGenius replicates the recovered data, the replication is complete ▼
- Verified that the file can be opened and used as usual
- It should be noted that the "Missing Files" folder also contains some files with the wrong directory index.If useful, you can choose to restore.
- In the same way, continue to restore the next two partitions.
Using DiskGenius to recover data is really intuitive and simple, saving our precious data ▼
- So far, the data of the three unformatted partitions have been recovered.
- We use DiskGenius and other similar software to scan and analyze the directory data after partition reorganization.
