I had reset my laptop to factory settings without deleting personal files, but one of my software was deleted with its own database.
Any suggestions for how to undo this reset effect? There is no system restore point.

What can I do to recover that software or at least the database mdf and ldf file

If you used the integrated Windows 10 reset, I believe it stores the files to be able to roll back. You may also check if C:\Windows.old\Program Files has any relevant files.

You may need to use data recovery software, for instance TestDisk.

This tool is powerful free data recovery software designed to recover lost partitions.

Among other features it can, TestDisk can:

  • Fix partition table, recover deleted partition

    • Undelete files from FAT, exFAT, NTFS and ext2 filesystem

    • Copy files from deleted FAT, exFAT, NTFS and ext2/ext3/ext4 partitions.

Which accomplish what you want to achieve in terms of getting you data back

Hope this helps
