The Disk Management Snap-in tool is a free data recovery program which helps in recovering the deleted Windows partition (NTFS or FAT32 dynamic volume). Whenever a dynamic volume is deleted it is actually the sector 0 which is deleted. That data can be restored from the backup boot sectors.

Things to remember before performing partition recovery:

The FAT 16 partition cannot be restored with the help of this method as there is no provision in it for back up boot sector. Also the RAID-5 or dynamic mirror volume cannot be restored with the help of this method. A Windows XP user would have to try the Windows XP Recovery Console for restoring the deleted data.

Steps for restoring the deleted NTFS Volume

The basic idea is to recreate the NTFS volume without actually formatting it. So a user should remember the exact size of the previous volume which was created.
