In case anyone is in a similar situation, I can't say enough good things about PhotoRec. It saved my ass more than once from hard drive recovery down to SD cards.

Yeah, yeah, it's command line only, but once you get your stuff back it's worth learning!

And it is not only command line. PhotoRec has a gui, only testdisk doesn't

I second this. I luckily never needed it myself but I saved the stuff of a few people over the years and it’s not one of those annoying „free“ apps.
