Hi there!
I have a case that is faced me to a new problem.
The drive has a GPT Protective Partition. The user is accidentally formatted it.
I have imaged the drive, and scanned the whole drive with R-Studio, but it cannot found folder structure, but recognized the files by file type. The recognized partitions offset points are not correct. Get Data Back and ReclaiMe also did a same results.
When i scan only the formatted GUID GPT partition, then i see the root folders, but under these folders there are no subfolders or files, and the RAW recovery does not found any files.
Uhh...i need some help!
Thanks for any help!

DMDE doesn't find any remnants of the old partitions. :-(
