Data recovery from Google Drive

Recovering data from Google Drive can be a fairly simple process if the file was accidentally deleted or moved to the trash. In such cases, you can easily return the ego back to your account.

To restore a file from the Recycle Bin:

1. Open Google Drive and go to the "Cart" section on the left.
2. Find the desired file or folder, right-click on it and select the "Recover" option.

If your file is not displayed in the Recycle Bin, it may have been permanently deleted (within 30 days after that). Nevertheless, there is a chance to restore the ego through the “Search” function:

1. Go to the main page of Google Drive.
2. Click the search field (“Find items”) at the top of the screen.
3. Enter the file name or keywords for the search request
4. Google will scan your account and offer results that match your search parameters

It is also worth mentioning third-party software tools for more advanced recovery operations - for example, Recuva, EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard Free, Disk Drill, and others. They can help restore deleted files from your computer or even from cloud storage.

However, it is worth noting that these programs are not always guaranteed to save all data - it depends on various factors (the time that has passed since the file was deleted, overwriting of data on the hard disk, etc.). Therefore, it is recommended to use such tools as soon as possible after data loss to increase the chances of successful information recovery.
