Hard disks

I accidentally formatted one of the disks on the laptop (quick format), I thought I’ll restore everything without problems, but nothing comes out. I have already tried 10 programs, nothing can be found, only 6 files and then all sorts of nonsense. Although before that it was always possible to restore at least something, but here there is not even a single photo and not a single document, what could be the problem, and if I bring it into the service, do they have any other recovery software?

Are you sure you have a hard drive in the sense of a spinning platter HDD and not an SSD (solid state drive)? For the latter, unfortunately, the situation is quite realistic.
Further questions:
- in the laptop there are no tricks "for speed", like a small caching SSD?
-- what file system was used on the formatted drive?
-- how much time has passed since formatting (the more, the worse)?
-- did you save any new data to the formatted drive?

Recuva, R-studio, Hetman Partition Recovery, Wondershare, Pandora Recovery are the ones that I remembered

If we are talking about Windows and the corresponding FS, then try R.saver as well . It's free and doesn't require installation. The main thing is not to download and unpack to a formatted disk.

if I bring it to the service, do they have any other recovery software?

There is a PC-3000 with a date extractor. However, if you are 100% sure that the problem is purely logical, then it will give some noticeable improvements only in some cases.
In normal places, diagnostics are free, here is a reminder for choosing such a data recovery center: https://xn----7sbbfbnfa0a2audfacc2cat8e9f.xn--p1ai/

They have experience in such matters. Carry. Let them watch. They will definitely say it is possible / impossible and how much for the money, maybe you don’t need it

Have you tried programs that search for file signatures?
For example, the same winhex
