Convert exFAT to NTFS without data loss. Possible?

[konoplya]

hi guys. have a question to which i really couldn't find a straight answer to searching the web. i run windows 7 on my pc. i have a SDXC 64GB SanDisk Extreme Pro card i use in my dslr. apparently it is formatted with exFAT file system. anyway, i deleted some pics by mistake and wanted to use the recovery software to recover them from the card. the software doesn't support exFAT system. the software's name is Pandora Recovery 2.1.1.

i know that in the past i used to format FAT drives to NTFS without data loss. is there a way to do it on the card that has exFAT? OR is there a recovery software that would support exFAT (that would be ideal i guess).

thanks!

More then likely converting it will ruin your chances of recovering any data
You will have to find a recovery tool that can read and recover from exfat partitions

thank you for the reply. i didn't have enough guts to try and do the conversion, but after some extensive searching i was able to find a program that could recover files from an exFAT system. the program is called Recuva.
