Ever regretted deleting a file and wanted it back? I sure did! Infact, it happened many times to me and I just let it go until one day I lost a really important file which made me get to work. I'm sure this has happened to many of you as well, and I'm glad to say that today I will be writing about a software which will help you out!
When I was browsing the internet to find a way to get my file back, I tested many programs and I decided to stick with a file recovery software called Recuva. If you're interested, you can find more information about Recuva here.
With this piece of software, you will most likely be able to return the files that you have deleted, unless a long time has passed until you deleted them, or you filled the clusters of the hard drive which contained those files before with something else. In that case, you will end up getting corrupt or wrong files.
Using Recuva is quite simple. All you have to do is to scan the drive where you want to return the files from to start with.
After the scanning part is done, find the file(s)/folder(s) you want to recover and check them.
After you checked the files you want to recover, click the recover button at the bottom right corner. It will ask you to choose the destination folder. Note the important part here is that you should not choose the hard drive you're recovering files from as the destination, since it will reduce the chance your files will be recovered.
If all goes well, you will succesfully recover your files within moments depending their size. This worked 90% of the time for me, except for a few instances where I tried to recover files which I deleted months ago. Then again, it's a great example of file recovery and that deleting a file isn't the end of everything.
This software is the one I had most success with, but feel free to try other softwares since they all work in a different way and you might have luck with an another one if you didn't have luck with this one.
I hope you enjoyed the read, and I hope this helps you out!
