 Recover
a deleted file or folder

When
deleting a file or folder from your computer the best thing that I can
recommend is to always think twice. Never delete any files or folders
without taking that split second to reflect on the consequences.
Recovery of a deleted file or folder depends
on:
-
Wether the file or folder went to the recycle bin
-
Wether it is still in the recycle bin or has it been deleted from there
also?
-
How long ago did the file or folder get deleted?
-
Has it been over written by other files?
Obviously the best scenario would be to have just accidentally deleted a
file or folder and it is still in the recycle bin.
Therefore all you have to do is:
-
Double click on the Recycle Bin on the desktop.
-
Then
right click on the correct file and choose to restore
it.
If
the file or folder has been deleted from the
recycle bin you will need a program to recover them. As long as the space
where the file originally existed hasn't been overwritten. I have tried the
free trial version of
Undelete-now.com and it works fine.
Notes:
-
The
best way to recover your deleted files or folders is to not delete them in
the first place.
-
Instead of deleting files to clean your computer off, backup all files, then
after a month or so delete them then.
-
Hide
important files so children cannot accidentally delete them.
