Yesterday, I deleted some important files carelessly by pressing 'shift + delete' key at the same time, and then I intend to undo this shift delete operation by pressing 'ctrl + z', because these deleted files are very important for me, it is a disaster for me to lose these important files, so I must get these deleted files back. I press 'ctrl + z' at the same time, but Windows pop up a 'Item Not Found' dialog who said: "Could not find this item. This is no longer located in D:. Verify the item's location and try again". Oh, My God, where are my deleted files? It were not in the Recycle Bin too.
In fact, I know deleted files, which were deleted by pressing 'shift + delete', are always not in the Recycle Bin, but I do not know 'ctrl + z' is invalid too. Then, is there a way to restore these deleted files or how to undo shift delete operation? Before get an answer of this question, let us together learn what happens when we press 'shift + delete' at the same time.
As you know, usually, when we delete some files, these deleted files will be thrown into the Recycle Bin of Windows, and then you can easily restore these deleted files to their original location from the Recycle Bin. However, if we delete some files by pressing 'shift + delete' or by other third-party software, these deleted files will not be thrown into the Recycle Bin, they will disappear from our computer. It is that we can see, but in fact, these deleted files do not be erased immediately and contents of these files will not be immediately destroyed. The operation system just simply marks the hard drive space as being available for use by changing one character in the file table so that these files entry won't be displayed in My Computer, Recycle Bin and 'dir' command line. Theoretically, until the area is overwritten, the file can be recovered intact by a third party application. So, once you have discovered that some important files in Recycle Bin after emptied Recycle Bin, you should stop writing any data to the partition until these files are successfully recovered.
Now, you know we still have a chance to undo shift delete or restore deleted files emptied from the Recycle Bin, but how to undo shift delete by yourself? Microsoft Windows and other operating system do not offer the abilit to undo shift delete, so you need a
professional file recovery software to help you to get your deleted files back.
