Recover DELETED Files from recycle bins!!




hy Guyzz. Have you ever accidentally deleted a photo or other file from your computer or digital camera? Even if you clear the recycle bin, there is still a chance your pictures can be recovered. 
Read Post to Know How??


You will need to use a utility to reassemble the file remains back into the original files.
I like to use a free utility called Recuva by Piriform. Now Follow-

Step 1) Head over HERE and download a copy of program.

Step 2) After the utility is installed start it up.

Step 3) Click cancel on the Recuva Wizard screen. First, select the drive you want to scan for the deleted files. 


Note: There are two ways to scan for deleted files. First we are going to use the default scan method. 


Default Method

Click on the Button Scan.




The results pane will be populated when the scan is completed. Files that are green can be recovered by other files that are yellow or red have been overwritten. Previews are shown for some files when you click on them. 


Check the boxes next to the files you want to restore and click Recover.




Step 7) Select a location to restore the files to and click OK. Make sure you select a different storage device/drive than where the files are currently located so you don’t overwrite the file remains. 
Step 8) Your files will now be recovered. 

DEEP SCAN

Earlier I mentioned there is another method to recover deleted files with Recuva that is helpful when the files you want do restore were not found with the normal scan. 
Running a deep scan will check the actual sectors on the storage device for file remains. You can enable this scan option by clicking Options on the main screen. 

Click on the Actions tab, check Deep Scan and click OK. 


Now just click Scan again and go for a walk because the deep scan can take a while depending on the size of the drive. 


When the scan is completed restore the files the same way discussed above for the normal scan.
Good Luck!
