Restore recently deleted files
Restoring recently deleted files can be a fairly simple process if you act quickly and correctly. Here are some steps that will help you recover lost data:
1. Check the trash: the first place to search for deleted files is your trash on your computer or storage device (flash drive, external hard drive, etc.). Open the shopping cart and check its contents.
2. Use the "Undo" function: many programs have an option to undo recent changes or operations with files/folders (usually the Ctrl + Z key combination). If you accidentally deleted something from the program interface of the application, try using this function.
3. Data recovery program: there are special programs for recovering deleted files from hard drives or other data storage devices (Recuva, EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard Free Edition, etc.). By installing such a program after an incident without recording new data on the same physical drive, you can repeat the scan of its system table file structure and, possibly, restore deleted files.
4. Contact a specialist: if you cannot recover the lost data yourself or it was of special value to you (important work/project), it is better to seek help from professionals - data recovery companies. They can use more sophisticated software and methods to extract information from damaged drives.
In any case, it is very important to act quickly after deleting the file - the more time that has passed from the moment of its deletion to the beginning of attempts to return it, the lower the success rate of such operations.
