    For me it also worked with testdisk to solve wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/nvme0n1 as in my answer here: unix.stackexchange.com/a/747574/459266. Commented May 30, 2023 at 15:22
  • This worked for me! I followed step 1 to 4. For step 5, I just kept the default, and for step 6 I didn't bother with a deeper search despite having 3 partitions. Probably not the wisest, but I forgot what partitions/filesystem the drive had, so I opted to gamble it. Upon exiting testdisk, GNOME Disks showed individual partitions, I was able to mount the disk, and successfully recover all data. Commented Jul 10, 2023 at 21:38
