Recovering your file with PCDOCPRO

Recovering Dead Or Missing Files

It’s a popular misconception with novice Windows users that once one deletes a file from the recycle bin, it’s unrecoverable, gone forever; if you haven’t let a significant amount of time elapse since deleting the file from the recycle bin, you may still be in luck. So, what exactly happens when a file is deemed defunct and swept out of the bin? Windows won’t actually permanently overwrite your file until new data rides in and is written to disk; so, the file still resides on your hard drive, even when purged from the recycle bin, but it can’t been seen anymore. Bearing this in mind, there’s always a chance that Windows hasn’t overwritten your deleted data yet, so your file may still be recoverable if you’ve the right tools at your disposal.

Where’s my File?

Your document was there a second ago, now it’s not! Did you accidentally clean it out from the recycle bin, or perhaps you simply misplaced or renamed it on your hard drive? Your brain is frazzled, and it’s hard to think straight, but don’t panic. Before investing in a professional file recovery program, try several tips that may save you time and money.

Firstly, if you think you may have deleted it, don’t run any programs or services that write data to your hard drive. Remember when I said deleted files will eventually get overwritten given enough time? Well, this is why it’s wise not to provoke Windows into doing any data output to your hard disk while your file is still on a milk carton. Start with using the built-in Window search tool—Start menu, Search. Start out by searching for the entire file’s name or a part of the file’s name. If you locate your file using this method, be sure to make a backup to a thumb drive or email it to yourself for offsite storage.

No Dice: Another Method

So, you’ve scoured your hard drive with Windows Search and have come up empty. It may be time to bring in the big guns. If you query Google, you’ll find scads of file recovery utilities, alongside the supposedly more reputable pay-before-you-own programs. One example, FreeUndelete, may be just what you need to get your file back; it’s interface is clean, simple, easy to use, and it’s clean from the nasty, groping tendrils of spyware and adware!

Resurrection After Reformatting

Have you ever accidentally reformatted your hard drive? What a nightmare, I know, but how does one recover their data from such a catastrophe? This scenario requires a little more muscle than a simple data recovery utility provides. QueTek offers a solution called File Scavenger for $49 USD, which is a lot cheaper than many of the other recovery solutions on the market; File Scavenger also offers most of the features of its more expensive competition.
