How to Recover Deleted Files on a Computer/Microsoft Photo

Despite OS warning Windows (or any other) that the empty basket will not allow you to return the data, there is still a way to restore the information.

It is important to note that it is only relevant if no new files have been written about the lost files. Following all the steps of the algorithm step by step, you can easily recover your data using a special program. Remo windows file recovery software is one of the best in the market and will help you recover any data you lost.

 

How to Recover Deleted Files from Recycle Bin in Windows

  1. The first step is to install special data recovery software. We recommend using the app Recuvawhich is completely free. It is best to download it to another drive as it is important that nothing on the drive is overwritten by the lost files. It is best to use the method with the program installed on a USB flash drive.
  2. When you start Recuva for the first time, a recovery wizard dialog will appear. The user must click the “Next” button.
  3. In the next window, you need to fill in the fields with the types of files you want to recover. You can separately select photos, videos, music, text documents, etc. Additionally, you can select the “All Files” option, which allows you to recover all types of files. After a successful selection, click the “Next” button.
  4. The next window is to choose the location of the files to be restored. To return basket information, you must select the In the Recycle Bin option. This item is suitable in cases where the files were deleted by moving to the “Trash”. Otherwise, you can always select the “I’m not sure” option, and then the program will automatically search the entire drive. Once selected, click the “Next” button.
  5. If a quick scan doesn’t help, you can select the option for a deeper search. This option will take more time, but it can help recover lost files. To enable this feature, you must select the Enable Deep Scan option before pressing the Start button.
  6. After some time, Recuva will perform a thorough scan of your drive looking for any missing files that can be recovered. All of them will be displayed in a list where the user can selectively save them to a new location using the “Recover” button.

  3. The program will start scanning and as a result it will offer the user files that can be recovered.
