Is a deleted partition recoverable?

Many users may wonder if it is possible to recover a lost partition in Windows 10. When a partition gets deleted, the system removes its information from the partition table. The ability to recognize the partition depends on the partition table and boot sector. But there is good news! Recovery of lost partitions in Windows 10 is possible and, moreover, it is simple.

Deleted Partition recovery

The table handles information about the parameters of the partition. If the partition table loses information, the system will lose the corresponding partition. The result is that you cannot see the volume in File Explorer or Disk Management. The disk space becomes unallocated without wiping, which means it is possible to restore the partition table. If you use professional recovery software, you'll be able to find the missing partition with its files and restore it all.. What can you do to recover a lost partition in Windows 10?

Manual 1: recover deleted partition using cmd

To recover a lost partition, we can undo the Diskpart clean command. But this method does not work on all partition loss issues. It's only helpful if partition lost due to volume letter incompatibility.

If this method to restore deleted partitions doesn’t work, go to Manual 2 to recover lost partitions on Windows 10.

Note: if you are not familiar with Diskpart commands, do not try it. Some commands such as "clean" delete all partitions and data on the selected disk.

1. Open Disk Management to find the lost partition.

You can access Disk Management by right-clicking the Start menu and click Disk Management. If a partition is deleted, the disk space is unallocated. Remember the partition size.

2. Open Command Prompt as administrator, type Diskpart in the window and press the Enter key.

3. Type command list disk and press the Enter key so that you can see all storage devices on the computer.

4. Type command select disk z and press Enter. Replace z with the number of the hard drive that needs recovery of the lost partition.

5. Type assign letter=G and press Enter (G is a drive letter chosen randomly).

6. Close Command Prompt when you see "Diskpart successfully assigned the drive letter or mount point".

Pay attention! If you are not familiar with Diskpart commands, do not try it. Some commands such as "clean" delete all partitions and data on the selected disk.
