I wanted to reinstall the windows, so I have formatted the C: partition and when I tried to install windows it showed me MBR error. Somewhere on internet I have found the solution for that problem, and it was to clean the disk and convert it to GPT before installing the windows. And I did that, but what happened was that it has formatted also my D: disk and made the one disk of those two, so I lost all the data from the D: disk. Now I am afraid to install operating system cause I am scared that it may overwrite my data if there is still any chance to recover it. So is there any chance?

I've always liked PhotoRec for recovery. It of course is not guaranteed, but has done well for me in the past, even off flash disks that have been formatted: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec – MaQleod Mar 11 '17 at 19:05
