Restore deleted files from Google Drive
Recovering deleted files from Google Drive is possible, but there are several important points to consider.
1. Time: Deleted files are stored on Google servers only for a certain time (usually 30 days). After that, they are permanently deleted and it will no longer be possible to restore them.
2. Steps for recovery:
– Open your browser and go to drive.google.com.
- Sign in with your Google account.
– Find the “Trash” or “Deleted” folder. Usually this folder is located to the left of the main list of files.
– Scroll through the list until you find the desired deleted file or folder.
– Highlight it with the checkboxes to the left of the file/folder name
If you would like to return all items from the Basket at the same time, select the "CLEAR" button
This will lead to the authorization of all data without the possibility of subsequent access to the data
3. Use of third-party applications: There are also specialized data recovery programs that can help restore deleted files from Google Drive. However, using such programs requires certain skills and knowledge.
It is important to note that if you did not find the desired file or folder in the Recycle Bin or more than 30 days have passed since the data was deleted, the probability of successful recovery will be very low. Therefore, it is recommended to always back up your data to prevent information loss.
