NEW INFORMATION

Not sure if you guys knew this, but you can actually restore permanently deleted files on your computer. This is a revelation for me cause I recently deleted my most important files on my computer by complete accident and when I found out you can restore just about anything no matter how gone it is was incredible to me. Share this information hahah

But how? You can restore from your bin but not entire deleted data...

Yeah, I think data on your hard disk is not deleted even if you removed it from recycle bin. It's only deleted when you save new stuff and old bytes of data is overwritten. But you if your using windows you need third party recovery program.

Windows has a feature where you can go back and restore old files via VSS. But you have to enable it for it to work

how do you do that? Restore from the recycle bin?

I think you can restore fragments on the harddrive but not fully

u can but it's tricky some logiciel can di that but not for all delelet files

To add to that: You can completely restore files you have uploaded to the Google cloud by requesting your personal information.

"you can restore just about anything no matter how gone"

no entirely true. you can always restore it if it hasn't overwritten with new data because, in windows, it doesn't delete the actual data and just forget the address and mark it as free space when you delete something(soft delete). in Linux, you probably can't restore it because it is a hard delete.

This is pretty cool, could def help in police investigations.
