As it was a SanDisk flash drive, why not use the software they have to resolve such a situation?
Try SanDisk RescuePRO, and have it scan the drive to see if the deleted files are recoverable. https://www.lc-tech.com/pc/sandisk-rescuepro-and-rescuepro-deluxe/

As long as there was no issue with the drive, it should be safe to re-save them back to the drive.
But, to be sure, it would be a good idea to save those files in more than one place. Like maybe an extra flash drive, or to "the cloud". always have more than one backup.

SOURCE: Bought a Verbatim 1Gb USB Drive with some .pdf files for secure zone. I overwrote these accidentally.

usb drives dont have manuals the computer automatically detect the drive.

in saving files it is the same when you save in a floppy or other drives.

SOURCE: The USB connector broke!

I did the same to the cruzer as tedthehobit, and here's how I fixed it.
1) Split open enclosure with screwdriver alone edge. The small key-ring will come off when enclosure is separated. (Safety glasses, please). Circuit board is attached to plastic base--the piece for sliding the connector.
2) To see amount of damage and trace connection, remove the plastic as follows. Two notches are on each size at socket end. The other end has plastic bar across on-top. Use needle-nose piler to chew away top of notches, slowly and carefully to avoid stressing board and damaging surface. This makes it easier to move the notches to the side to lift the board up and out.
3) Look at pads where socket was attached. Fairly clean break, surrounding circuit trace and pads are intact. So, it is worth to continue.
4) The socket connection side has no large pads to solder wiring. The D+ and D- traces were lifted off slightly, but too thin to attach wire. Look at the other side.
5) Use flashlight as backlight, and follow traces from connector pads to ends of closest chips where it is big enough for soldering. [I have jpg of connection points--where to post it?]
6) Use wire-warp (hair-thin and pre-stripped) wire and small-tipped solder iron and work under bright light. Tin wire with traces of solder and remove excesses solder from iron tip. Connect wire to chip, melting and using the solder already there.
7) Solder other ends of wire to the correct tabs of the usb socket.
8) Plug usb socket into a socket extender to plug into PC. Extender is optional, but it will help to deteach from PC later.
9) Did not work the first time because 5V-line solder at circuit was not good (eventually came off). Re-solder. Plug back into PC, and cruze lit up and PC can access the file.

How can i recover the data from my flash drive after forced to format

Deleting or formatting won't make the data in USB drive erased permanently.


Those deleted data is still stored on the USB drive , it's just invisible or inaccessible. Only the FAT or NFTS table is erased (the information about where those data were saved), but the real data are still intact there in sectors of the hard drive.


So as long as those data are not overwritten by new data, it's highly possible to recover them. And the MOST Effective way is to rely on some format recovery programs.


Try this flash drive recovery program named asoftech data recovery, which can recover data after deeply scanning your USB drive to look for lost data you accidentally deleted or formatted.
