From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Great time to mention tools like testdisk that can easily recover data that has been recently deleted on common filesystems.
Btrfs.
Though nothing can replace a proper backup
I would use gparted
Edit: it can only restore deleted partitions, not files. For restoring files check the documentation for your file system
Gparted can restore deleted files?
No, I had a brain pause
I dont think so... you can use it to set up deleted paritions again afaik but thats all that i know of.
It also can restore disk partitions. Whoops, I made a minor blunder
You go into tools and then recover partitions.
