Change RAW partition to NTFS or recover files from RAW

Didn't need to recover my data and reinstall Windows. I've repaired the damaged partition unsing a recovery tool TestDisk.

1. Analyse hard disk and find the damaged partition;
2. Change it to primary partition;
3. Rewrite the partition table to register it again;
4. Reboot, Windows starts normally.

All these steps are explained here: Step_By_Step Wiki

Just in case this helps someone else in a slightly different scenario, chkdsk /F worked for me to make an unreadable "raw" partition a readable "NTFS" one, without loss of data. My scenario, in short, was that while the disk wasn't bootable, and Disk Management on another system would show it as "raw", chkdsk detected it as ntfs and repaired it:

• disk (500GB Windows 8 boot drive from neighbor's Dell Optiplex system) showed up as "raw" in Windows 10 Disk Management
• same disk - readable in MacOS 10.14 - i.e. could recover all files there
• convert /fs:ntfs said, "disk is already NTFS" or something like that
• chkdsk (w/o /F) said it was an NTFS partition and that there were a lot of file table errors

Copy of chkdsk output:

WARNING!  /F parameter not specified.

Hope this helps someone else in the same situation.
