Can't mount ntfs partition

about one year ago I made a mistake and removed the partition table of hard disk....
I mentioned the problem in a forum and got a good help to use testdisk. and problem solved.

but the process take a long time and I forgot about this option.
if there is a short way to fix the problem I prefer to do that.

Hmm, too bad.

I do not think you should continue trying to fix this device from Linux. Try this person’s solution:

They used this software: https://www.diskpart.com

It looks like it is designed for exactly the situation you are in. Once you repair the drive you can resize it with this software as well. Also, it looks like you can make a bootable USB with it too so you don’t need to run Windows if you don’t want to.

I used testdisk and got error. something like this: invalid FAT boot sector
I saw it at 99% of deep search.

I'm not sure how likely you are to to find someone who can help you with your TestDisk software here in the Garuda Linux forum. I personally have zero experience with it.

It does appear they maintain their own forum:

https://forum.cgsecurity.org/phpBB3/

That might be a more likely source for help with this specific issue.
