Usually, it is not important that we accidentally delete some important files, because we can restore these deleted things from the recycle bin of Windows. When we delete some things by Windows, it will send these deleted things to the recycle bin, so after we deleted some important things carelessly, we can look for these deleted things in the recycle bin, and then restore these deleted things from the recycle bin to their original place. If these important deleted things are existed in the recycle bin and we can recover these deleted things from the recycle bin, we are fortunate. However, there are many situations, we can not recover deleted things from the recycle bin in these situation, because they are not existed in the recycle bin. Such as: we deleted some files and then emptied the recycle bin, we deleted some files by pressing shift + delete or we deleted some files by a third-party software, in these cases, Windows doesn't send deleted files to the recycle bin and we can not recover these deleted files from the recycle bin. So, is there a way to recover things that were deleted from the recycle bin? Before we discover the answer of the question, let us learn what happens in the above cases.
What Happens When We Delete Some Things
If we just deleted some things by Windows explorer, these deleted things often were sent to the recycle bin. In fact, the recycle bin is a system directory of Windows operating system, Windows just move some directory information of these deleted files to the recycle bin direcotry and Windows does not actually delete these things, so we can find these deleted things in the recycle bin and recover deleted things from the recycle bin.
However, if we emptied the recycle bin, or we deleted some things by pressing shift + delete, these deleted things will not be sent to the recycle bin, but Windows doesn't erase all datas of these deleted things at once, Windows just marked place where these deleted files located as free state and then other programs can write files and datas into these place.
As above mentioned, Windows doesn't erase those deleted things before other programs write datas in the place. So, we still have a chance to recover things that were deleted from the recycle bin, please keep in mind: recover deleted things before other programs write any data in the place, else you may lost those deleted things permanently. We know we still have chance to recover things that were deleted from the recycle bin, but how to recover them?
