How to recover data from corrupted windows OS?
Sometimes our PC or Laptop get stuck and suddenly and blue screen appears with error code, and it shows message like ‘Collecting information’. Then PC or Laptop get restart. This happen due to windows errors most time or sometimes if memory get full and multiple software running and one of them get hang.
In this problem our whole ongoing work like words docs, spreadsheets, other projects, open software lose all data and it is not recoverable because it stores in RAM until it not saves properly to the hard drive.
Its ok if our system get restart and start work properly but what if it does not start or needs to be reinstalled. Then all user data get lose with installed software and data including downloaded files, documents folders and music and video files which commonly stored in ‘C’ drive in Users folder along with username’s named folder.
It is possible to recover all this data before formatting your laptop or PC. Here are common and most efficient solutions to recover those files again
1. By booting live OS.
The popular Linux based operating system Ubuntu will boot live on ant pc/laptop without any installation. There are many Debian based distributions like Kali, Mint, Arch can boot live. We are getting Ubuntu as example.
You have to download Ubuntu desktop operating system on another pc (https://ubuntu.com/download/desktop) and use rufus to boot it on pen-drive.
Reference
to create bootable pendrive
Connect the bootable pendrive to your PC which you want to recover data from. Restart th pc/laptop , press f2 or f12 to open boot menu (Depends on your pc/laptop manufacturer search on google for more info ). Select the pendrive as boot device.
After boot select live run option. Now you have clean Ubuntu desktop OS. Go to the file explorer open your C drive or other drives Ubuntu will mount them for you in /media directory.
If drive not opens or show any error kindly restart your pc/laptop and try again with same procedure.
Your donloaded, documents and on desktop files are stored in directory C:/users/[username]/Desktop
C:/users/[username]/Download
C:/users/[username]/Documents
You can take backup to external hard-disk or pen-drive
