If the partition itself was wiped or overwritten, then you may not be able to get anything back. If the file-system was somehow wiped or overwritten, then you’ll have to settle for doing a deep-scan and manually identifying the large dump of recovered and numbered files. If the files were merely deleted, then you may be able to get back the filenames and directory structure (to some extent). Your results will depend on how the partition was erased. In this case, they don’t have any information available about the filename or directory structure, the file’s date, or even its exact size (it will round it up to the nearest cluster size). Other programs do a “deep scan” which examines the disk itself and looks for signatures of various file-types to identify possible files. Some programs scan the file-system to find deleted files and use the available information to recover filenames and directory structure. It should be obvious really but I've seen many make this mistake., and then they wonder why they could not recover most of their files. copy files to it etc.) and always recover to a different physical hard disk (such as an external one), not just to another partition or worse the same one.
Important! Do not touch the empty partition (i.e. Also, some files may be recoverable but their folder structures may not (especially if you turn on the known file type scan/identify feature), so remember to look in those sections of the scan results as well.
Run a thorough/deep scan of the drive (be prepared to run it overnight since it may take quite a few hours to complete), then you can recover the files with original folder structures whenever possible (note that you may need to toggle the relevant option under the program's settings). I highly recommend using good data recovery software such as GetDataBack for NTFS, RStudio and Zero Assumption Recovery. Yes, it is possible and I (unfortunately) have personal experience with doing this.
