Restore files after deletion
Recovery of files after deletion may be possible, but it depends on several factors. Here are some ways to recover files:
1. Check the recycle bin: If you accidentally deleted files on a Windows or Mac computer, they may end up in the Recycle Bin or Trash. Just find them there and return them back to their place.
2. Use the "Undo" function: Some programs have the "Undo" function, which allows you to undo the last actions of the user, such as deleting a file. Press Ctrl+Z to check this option.
3. Return to the previous version of the file: Windows and Mac operating systems save a backup copy of the previous versions of the files automatically when the content of the file is changed or it is overwritten by another file.
– For Windows users, you can right-click on the desired file -> Properties -> Previous Versions
– For MacOS users, you can right-click on the desired elements -> 'Versions' ('Previous')
4. Use data recovery software: If the files were deleted from the recycle bin or you cannot find previous versions, you can use special data recovery software. Some popular tools of this kind are Recuva (Windows), Disk Drill (Mac and Windows) and EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard.
5. Contact professionals for data recovery: If all the described methods do not help, and the lost information is very valuable or had great importance for your work/life, then it is best to contact a company specializing in document recovery services for help.
It is important to note that the chances of successful file recovery decrease with each new action on the hard disk after its deletion. Therefore, it is worth taking measures as soon as possible after losing the file.
