Recovery of files on the hard disk
Recovery of files on the hard disk may be necessary in case of deletion or loss of data. There are several ways to perform this operation.
1. Using data recovery software: There are various programs on the market that can help you recover deleted files from your hard drive. Examples of such programs are Recuva, EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard, and Disk Drill.
2. Connecting to a second computer: If your hard drive has been physically damaged (for example, due to a fall), you can connect it to a second computer as a second drive and use the utility to check the integrity of the Windows system file (chkdsk) or a similar tool on macOS /Linux.
3. Contacting professional data recovery services: In cases of serious damage or if self-performed operations are unsuccessful, you can seek help from third-party information repair/recovery services specialists.
Some useful tips:
– The sooner the process of possible correction of the problem begins, the greater the chances of successful data recovery. Therefore, do not delay action.
– If you accidentally deleted a file or folder, immediately stop using the computer and run the program to restore data from a second drive (for example, a flash drive).
– It is important to remember to save the found files on another drive or hard disk partition. This prevents overwriting of deleted data and repeated loss of information.
In any case, it is recommended to create regular backup copies of all your valuable data to minimize the possibility of information loss in the event of such incidents.
However, it should be noted that the results may be different depending on the specific situation - for example, if the data was completely overwritten with new information after the file was deleted/the system crashed/etc., then the probability of successful extraction will be significantly lower.
