Recovery of deleted Windows 10 files
Restoring deleted files in Windows 10 can be a fairly simple process if you act quickly and correctly. Here are some ways that can help you recover lost data:
1. Checking the Recycle Bin: the first place to search for deleted files is your Recycle Bin on your desktop or the Recycle Bin folder on your computer. If you accidentally deleted a file, it usually moves to this folder.
2. Using the Ctrl+Z command: after pressing the Ctrl+Z keys, you can undo the last step (including file deletion). This method works only if you have not yet performed other operations after deleting the file.
3. Application of a system restore point: Windows automatically creates system points every time before changing the configuration or updating installed programs.
– Right-click on the "My Computer" icon and select properties.
– On the left sidebar, click the “Protector” link.
– Select the required hard drive in the System Protection section
Here you can restore the system to the previous state when the file was still there.
4. Using specialized programs for data recovery: there are various third-party programs that help restore deleted files even after they have been completely removed from the Recycle Bin or formatted on the hard drive. Some popular examples of such programs are Recuva, EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard, and Disk Drill.
It is important to note that the sooner you start the file recovery process after its deletion, the more chances it has to be successfully found and saved back to your computer.
