Did you do a 'quick format' or a proper format?

First make clone of the disk.
Then you can use DMDE, RStudio etc.

Stop using it now! Get another HDD and clone it right away. After your clione use any recovery program you chose on this one. You have Get Data Back NTSF, R Studio, and some other. They are not free but they do work and they can do a good job at raw recovery to get back the data that has been formatted. You might not get it all back depending on how much you have used the drive and if any areas are over written on this one.
