    How do I get back all my data from the 2T hard drive after I installed the Creation Media Tool?


    Hello,I installed the Creation Media Tool onto my external hard drive which is 2T and has all my pictures and files from years of backing them up but I did not get a warning that all of my personal files would be deleted. I really need to get them back. I've been trying to find ways on how to redownload them but I cannot seem to find a way how. Please let me know if there's a way to get them back.Thanks in advance,Nadine A

    :)

    Suggestions on recovering data deleted by Media Creation Tool.

    Hello, I recently installed Media Creation Tool on an 4TB ext. HD in it's own storage space with its own drive letter. After running the installation in that space, all of the other drive letters are gone and stating that the space is 32gb. Has anyone found a secure software that was able to recover drive directories, or is it suggested to do a data recovery on the entire disk?

    Also. Is it not possible to use Media Creation Tool to create a Windows machine on a hard drive with multiple drive letters? I know of Rufus (win), Ethcher (win,unix,linux), and EaseUse.

    Any software suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
