Sometimes we feel that some files on our computer are unusable and we delete the file to free the disk space. When we delete a file simply using “Delete” button, it goes to Recycle Bin. It is the temporary type of file deletion. In case when we need for the deleted file, we can restore it from recycle bin. But, when we delete a file using “Shift + Delete” key combination, the file bypass the recycle bin. It can also happen when we delete a file from recycle bin. This is the permanent file deletion. It can happen intentionally or accidentally. In instance of permanent file deletion, user doesn’t have any Data Recovery tool to restore the file.
When a file is deleted permanently we my think that the file is lost forever. Even the Windows recommends while deletion a file using Shift + Delete or by emptying the recycle bin “Are you sure to delete the file”. In fact files never deleted permanently. The operating system has an index of all stored files. In the index table, every file has a flag, whenever a flag is on, the file is visible and when the flag goes off the file become hide or invisible. In case of permanent deletion, the OS put off the flag of particular file and the area occupied by the file is then marked as available and now operating system can write on this area. An entry of stored file is also exists on File system and it remain still even if we delete the file permanently. In case of permanent deletion, the OS system can’t find the path of that particular file and can’t access it.
But there is still hope that the delete file can be recovered. You can perform this task with the help of Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery Software. This is a destructive and read only data recovery software that uses advanced scanning algorithms to search and locate the deleted files and then recovery them. The software can also recover data from failed, damaged, corrupted or inaccessible hard drives.
