No results for Data loss after conversion from MBR to GPT.

I would appreciate help in trying to solve the complete loss of data (disk was marked as unallocated) when I attempted to Convert MBR/GPT using AOMEI Partition Assistant Professional Edition.
If anyone can help, PLEASE... let me know what information is needed to begin sorting this error out....

  • I just tried again...
    Sorry, the current operation has been canceled!
    Information Code: 6
    Description:The partition table on the disk was failed to update as the partition table is being locked by other programs, please close other programs and retry.

    What does the Information Code mean? Please refer to: https://www.diskpart.com/help/errorcode.html

    I am following the suggestions... The Partition Recovery Wizard has been running for quite a while now... screen just says, ...The program is saving the partitions to the physical disk... the progress bar is grayed out and has not updated/moved... the Back and Finish buttons are grayed out...

    AOMEI Support... PLEASE HELP...

    ----So, Partition Recovery Wizard searches the lost partitions?
    Could you try to create WinPE bootable media of AOMEI Partition Assistant and the boot the computer from WinPE media to run Partition Recovery Wizard again?

    Thank you Moot4hn, I understand you were inside of Windows, using PA to convert your disk from MBR to GPT.
    Before doing a major operation such as this, please always backup your essential files to a location off of your PC.
    As the Admin suggested, if this operation had an error in Windows, please go to another working PC, and create the USB version of PA, using the links below.
