How can you recover deleted files - quickly and free

          Deleting files by mistake or simply lost data from various causes are not so pleasant things that can happen to anyone. When such accidents occur, you must find a way to recover lost files. This process depends on how the data were lost. For accidental deletion, the solution is to use a file recovery program.

          The good news is that there are many programs, some for money, others free to recover files. Their effectiveness varies, some are better, some worse. For example, I stopped at a program that has two important advantages, it's free and very easy to use. It's called Recuva and can be downloaded here.

Deleting - recovering principle

          The bad news is that recovering deleted files is only possible under certain conditions. For those who do not know, I'll explain how simple it is possible to recover files. When you delete a file, it is not actually deleted but only "out of circulation". That is quite simply to be recovered.

          The main condition is to try to recover files before writing other data on that partition or hard drive. The more new files appear, the chances of recovery are small, because they will be copied over the erased.

Recuva - Free, simple and efficient

          Recuva can be used either through a wizard or without it, in the main window. If you prefer wizard, you must tick three steps: to specify the file type (image, document, etc.), to mention was the director before being deleted (optional) and choose scan mode. By default, calls to normal scan mode, it has the advantage of being very fast. Alternatively, you can choose Deep Scan mode, more thorough and lasting.

           I tested a few deleted files, intentional used Windows Explorer Shift + Delete to not be stored in the Recycle Bin. All were recovered without any problem, it was small files, recently deleted.

          Experience with such programs may differ. No one guarantees that, for example Recuva will be as effective on any computer. But Recuva has the advantage that it is free and very simple to use.
