How to recover an accidentally deleted mounted VeraCrypt partition?

[drthrd]

I accidentally deleted a mounted VeraCrypt partition. It shows up as unallocated space. What is the best software to recover the partition? I have not done anything to that partition.

If you are recovering a partition, TestDisk should do it and it is free:

Partition Recovery and File Undelete

TestDisk is a free and open source data recovery software tool designed to recover lost partition and unerase deleted files.

Do note that if it was on your system drive you do not want to save any files or install anything there until you can run the utility (you might be better off using the bootable rescue CD version burned to a flash drive using something like Rufus. Instructions are here.

If it is on a separate drive, you can probably use the Windows-x64 version. Unzip the file to a different drive and run the TeskDisk application in the folder it creates. Follow the above linked instructions to find and undelete the partition.

If you want easy to use commercial software, Acronis Disk Director and Easus Partition Master are both good.
