I reformatted my computer, i saved all my files in Local Disk (D:), a former computer technician said it won't be deleted or harmed any way while it was reformatted.
my files are still there but with .GHO and .GHS extensions.. and i can't open it. I know that I needed a Norton Ghost to open it, can a trial version recover those files? How? If not, is there any other way to recover my files?
please help me. thank you.

Yes! You are right! Nowadays, the
formatting process will not actually erase everything contained on a PC hard
drive immediately as we think. The deleted files are still there and become
invisible. So, just act carefully to get these contained files back:
1. Stop using this PC right now in case
that any new file on it may overwrite your wanted files.
2. Download a PC data recovery freeware to retrieve all your lost files back.
In fact, there are plenty of data recovery
programs available online. But, not all of them can work as efficiently as you
think. So, you should pay attention to select a proper one for your data.
If you still have no idea, you can firstly
try a PC data recovery freeware online that can work much more efficiently than
some paid ones:

4. Save or back up all the restored data on
another drive in case of any data loss.
Next time, you should be much more careful
about your data and always back up everything important well.
Yes, trial version can recover it. Just attach another drive or partition and via Norton Ghost recover all files in newly added drive/partition

Did you back them up using Norton Ghost? If so, were you using the trial or paid version?
