If you accidentally delete a file which you need, you can restore it by going to the recycle bin, right clicking the deleted file and selecting 'restore' from the drop down menu. This only works if the deleted file fitted into the recycle bin, if it did not, it would have been permanently deleted.

If you can not find your deleted files in recycle bin, you can still restore them using a data recovery software like Recuva data recovery, RestoreIT, Paragon, Partimage. A recovery software make a HDD scan for deleted files and can restore them in seconds.

Hi,

Actually this is my first in this community, thus i saw this question;

one method i know is using CMD, how?

first open, CMD by typing cmd in start menu,

second, while CMD is openned

Type the below command

ATTRIB -H -R /S /D (DRIVE NAME)LIKE C:*.*

This command is attribing your files back to its past form but be careful

for testing it put some files in an empty USB disk and examine it, if it worked for you than go ahead do whatever you want....and if it doesn't, so don't try technology is not human it will ruin your data and mind.

Thanks,
