Q: Wiped whole hard disk meanwhile trying to install windows on Bootcamp, i need data recovery assistance. Please help me, my whole 4 years work is wiped

Meanwhile trying to install windows on bootcamp, i accidentally erased my whole drive by doing the "Clean" and "Convert GPT".

i quit the windows installing process right away so right now i don't have any OS at all with the hope that i would still have small chances to recover files,

how can i recover my data back? PLEASE help

iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4), right now no OS at all

Do you have a backup? If not, there is very little chance of recovering anything.

Then unless you want to spend thousands of dollars for a professional data recovery service to attempt to retrieve your data (no guarantees), it's likely gone for good.
