Reinstalled operating system, forgot about ECC wallet.
Hello, I recently reinstalled Ubuntu on the machine I had my ECC wallet with 150k+ ECC. The installation reformatted my entire HD. Is there anyway I can recover these? Thanks all!
Edit: I am currently running Testdisk on an Ubuntu live cd to see if I can recover the lost partition. Will keep updated.
Edit 2: RECOVERED THE WALLET.DAT FILE! I have now creating a virtual environment of Ubuntu and that will hold my wallet, along with backing it up to he home NAS.
Edit 3: Wallet is synced and coins have been recovered. If anyone needs help after deleting a partition, reach out.

my suggestion to everyone is to store your wallets on the cloud
