Hi everybody,

I have sold my Asus laptop after having done a recovery of windows but I scream about my ancient windows datas. In fact, windows was installed on D:// (with program files etc...) and my datas on C://. I have selected the first option of the recovery system "recover windows to first partition only". So is it possible that my ancient windows is still on D:// with all the files related to (App data, program files...) ?

Thank you for your answer !

Did you set it to C: D:? Generally the D: drive is the recovery partition, simply holding the original set up, unless you designated it for backups, active, etc

Thank you.

My windows was installed on D but concerning the location of the recovery file, I didn't do anything, the recovery system juste ask where I want to do the recovery. I have chosen "recovery to the first partition"

If you had the system on D: then there's a chance the data is there

Thank you, is there a chance that the documents of the user folder located on D have been wiped ?

Possibly, best to have a look, if already passed the laptop on, see if you can get your hands on it for just a bit

Unfortunately I can't... Impossible to know user folder has been kept on D or not...
