They are important for my official use and hold great importance. I know that there is software for recovery but since I have a FAT16 file system I guess that all won’t work on that.

Please let me know the solution for this problem.
If you've written files to the disk after deletion, there is a chance that your deleted file could have been overwritten.

You can try recovery software, but I wouldn't hold out much hope if you've written data to the drive.
