Hello it's my first post.

Oh, by the mistake, I lost one of my partitions.
What have I done? Needed just take a picture of the system, and instead take a Ghost "partition to file" i done "partition to partition" option.
Of course, I noticed the problem after about 2 seconds after i press next. As a result, $MFT and $MFTmirr have been overwritten, $MFT is the same as the system partition, and $MFTmirr is created anew.
And there is hope because previous MFT mirror is probably still on the disk or at least its majority.
Does anyone know software that can handle this problem?
GetDataBack unfortunately does not give advice, TestDisk also says that everything is okay, because every two MFT tables seem correct to him. The problem is great, because like MFT is correct, but does not describe the data on that partition. I am sure that all the data are not overwritten.

thanks a lot, for any help.

you can use any professional data recovery software which has scan for partition.
The software will find for you first partitions then scan your desired partition to recover data. You can use the Geeksnerds Data Recovery Software to scan for partition and recover data, it will work for you.
