A number of automatic operations are carried out by partition recovery tools in an effort to repair damaged or erased partitions and/or recover data from them. A deleted partition results in the removal of its entry from the partition table. The data has not been erased from the disc, even if it looks intimidating that a whole information partition is no longer visible. In essence, eliminating the partition is like taking out a book's table of contents—all the material that is not on the table is still there; you simply need to use different techniques to locate it. Partition recovery tools can be useful in this situation. Partition table entry restoration is the process of looking across the disc space for a missing partition or a boot sector. It will contain all the data required to recreate the partition table entry by locating the partition boot sector. You can restore the boot sector to recover the volume because both FAT32 and NTFS drives keep backup boot sectors. Partition table entry reconstruction involves looking across the disc space for a partition boot sector or data from destroyed partition information. There are numerous tools for partition recovery that can be used to recover data that was accidentally erased or damaged to the partition. These tools have different features that can make the process of restoring data easier.
