Obligatory mention of file recovery as an option if you get in this situation.I recommend testdisk but there are other more gui friendly options.

NTFS takes a relatively long time to destroy the data so chances of recovery are good on Windows.

pretty unlike fat32 (fats fragmentation rate is obscenely high tbh)

well thats unless youre on ssd but most people use hdd
