No FREE software out there for Unformatting a hard drive!

Just cant believe it that I cant find any software which i could use to undo a QuickFormat on a FAT32 HardDrive.

No smart people ever write a program for use stupid people!

After all it was just a q/f....ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Have had help from posting yesterday just wanted to ask WHY NO PROGRAM, can get win2000 code, Viagra and porn on the web but no program to unformat a Q/F(4Free, dont count demos with limitations)

:-D

Umm from a win98/dos boot disk... Doesn't the command
Code:
format c: /q
Do a quick format? adding /s will do a format with system files...

I think... hehe its been a while since i've needed to do that...

Like I said no software out there for undoing a: format c: /q ( or d:, still cant believe i made that error, I DID type D: )

I think hard drive makers need to make there hard drives smarter.

So if you do a quick format you can just click undo.

Well i want to but that idea out into the WWW and see what happens. Want my % of the cash if some big hard drive makers put that into practice.

Thanks all for reading and replying.
