deleted file recoverey from exfat external hard disc

[gurujee]

I have a 500gb segate HD which i have formatted to exfat for compatibility with both windows and mac. I had a 6gb video file in that which i deleted 3-4months ago. I want to recover that file (i know it may not be 100% possible).

Problem is, I use EASEUS Data Recovery software and it works great with internal drive. but it fails to recognize my exfat harddisk. I googled and found out that there is no conversion process for exfat to ntfs. My doubt is-

if i move my files from extrnl HD, then quick format it to ntfs, and then use the software to recover that files,; is it advisable or is there any other methods for it.

pls help, i want that video file desperately.

I doubt it, once you change the file system, lesser the chance of recovery. You may need to find a tool which can recover from exfat.

PS : I am no pro, wait for further comments.

Try Remo file recovery software. It can recover deleted files from FAT and NTFS formatted External hard disk drive. I hope you will find your files using its trial version. Download the free-to-try version of the software and evaluate your chances of recovery.
