    pressed the storage pool creation and my data hard drive lost it's partition

    hi i have windows 11 installed on my pc. recently i found that feature in windows to create hard drive pools and wanted to see if it also supported refs file system.

    i have 2 drive:

    one 1tb nvme win windows installed in it and one 1tb mechanical hard drive with all my data.

    after going to manage storage spaces, i clicked on create pool as i was sure it will ask some confirmation before deleting something on my drive, so i click on create pool and without asking file system and other typical things it gived me an error. after that i noticed my second drive lost it's partition and has one unassigned partition.

    is it possible to recover the old partition with all my folder and files ? nothing else have been done on the hard drive; no write no repartitioning and so on.

    any help would be really appreciate.

    edit:_ could it be that before the hard drive was mbr, and after storage pool failed it converted it in gpt ?

    Hi,

    My name is Igor, it's a pleasure for me to help others and I'll do all my best to help you.

    Storage pool creation option warns about deleting all files, so please read all notifications carefully.

    You may try to recover partition structure using third-party DMDE tool but no success warranty unfortunately. If this will not be possible, try to recover your data files.
