Restoring data from a Windows 10 hard drive
Data recovery from the hard drive in the Windows 10 operating system can be performed in several ways. Here are some of them:
1. Using data recovery software: There are many free and paid programs that can help you recover deleted files or repair a damaged partition on your hard drive. Some of the most popular tools are Recuva, EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard, and TestDisk.
2. Check the Recycle Bin: If you accidentally deleted files, they can be moved to the Recycle Bin before they are finally removed from your computer. Just open the Recycle Bin on your desktop and check its contents.
3. Use previous file versions (File History): OS Windows 10 has a File History function that automatically creates backup copies of all file changes on your system at certain time intervals.
– Right-click on the folder or file you want to restore
– Select “Previous Versions”
– Select the desired restore point and click “Restore”
4. Use cloud storage: If you use online services for data backup, such as Google Drive or Dropbox, check your accounts for saved files.
5. Seek the help of a data recovery specialist: If all other methods did not work or the device has a physical defect (broken hard drive), it is best to contact a professional data recovery company.
When trying to perform any of these methods, you should remember:
– Stop using your hard drive immediately after deleting a file.
– The faster the restoration request is made, the greater the chance of success.
However, the stable creation of regular backups is the most carefree strategy
