My laptop was having problems connecting to the internet. The only way to fix it was to Factory Reset it. I transferred all data, including as much Minecraft stuff I could find. After the reset, I reinstalled Minecraft, but both of my servers were lost. I had just finished some major improvements to some of my creations and I need to know if there's any way to retrieve my data, or is all my hard work gone forever. Please reply as fast as possible!

Try to click on the windows button and try to find server.dat or the versions folder, if you find any of these you're saved, also check your trashbin. If this doesn't work try to get a recovery on your computer, if this doesn't work there is no other possible way, sorry.

Hope it works!

I'm pretty sure you're looking for the "server.dat". It's the file that is the servers you have saved.

ok there is always the data that you deleted. even if a program says it deletes it it may not be fully deleted get a data recovery program to recover deleted data

If you don't have a backup then I don't think there is a way, unless your server was hosted, then just ask your host for a backup.
