Recovery of deleted excel files
Restoring deleted Excel files can be a fairly simple process if you act quickly and correctly. Here are some ways to restore deleted Excel files:
1. Check the recycle bin: If you accidentally deleted a file, it could end up in the recycle bin of your computer or cloud storage (for example, Dropbox or Google Drive). Open the recycle bin and check if the file is there.
2. Use the "Undo" function: Some versions of the Microsoft Office program have the "Undo" function, which allows you to undo the last changes in the document. Execute the Ctrl+Z command to cancel the file deletion operation.
3. Go back to the previous version: Windows has the function "Previous Versions" (Previous Versions), which automatically creates backup copies of files at each significant change to the system or before starting a certain task.
– Right-click the folder with saved data
– Select properties
- Go to the "version" tab and select the desired one
4. Use software to restore data: There are various software tools that can help restore deleted Excel files. Some of them are free (for example, Recuva), and others are paid (for example, EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard). Install one of these software and follow the instructions to find and recover the deleted files.
5. Contact specialists: If all of the above did not give results or the level of significance of the lost file is very high - it is recommended to seek help from professionals from companies specializing in data recovery services.
It is important to note that the faster you start the recovery process after deleting an Excel file, the more chances you have to get it back undamaged.
