Mini tool partition wizard pro 11.5 didn't find a partition and displayed please try data recovery.
Data recovery displayed: failed to find any file system information.
Testdisk displayed:
Code:TestDisk 7.2-WIP, Data Recovery Utility, September 2020 Disk /dev/sdb - 67 MB / 64 MiB - CHS 8 255 63 Current partition structure: Partition Start End Size in sectors Partition sector doesn't have the endmark 0xAA55 *=Primary bootable P=Primary L=Logical E=Extended D=Deleted >[Quick Search] Try to locate partition
Does it appear that these tools were used properly?
So no partition and no data to recover?
