How to Restore Data from Toshiba Laptop?

“I was using Toshiba laptop which was running on Windows 7 operating system. One of my friend suggested that newly arrived Windows 8 has got great features as compared to Windows 7. So I considered of installing Windows 8 OS on Toshiba laptop hard drive. But before installing Windows 8 OS, I thought of backing up all important information saved on Toshiba laptop into external hard drive. However, I didn’t notice that my laptop is running out of battery during the file transmission process. My Toshiba laptop got turned off suddenly and files were partially transferred. Upon connecting Toshiba laptop to power supply, I switched it on to check whether everything is ok. But I was frightened as some files and folders which were getting transferred are not found either on laptop or external hard drive. I used cut and paste options to move data from Toshiba laptop to portable hard drive. I lost some vital files; can anyone tell me how do I regain missing data from my Toshiba laptop hard drive?”

However, don’t be depressed!!! The files and folders present in Toshiba laptop have not gone anywhere. Lost data is still present on hard drive of Toshiba laptop and you can recover it as long as data is not overwritten with new files.
