hello everyone how are you doing
this is mdtech here for another quick
tutorial today I'm going to show you
guys how to recover deleted files you
might have on your Windows computer so
let's say you've deleted some files in
the past and you want to recover them
this tutorial will be geared towards you
guys now the first thing I would always
recommend trying is opening up your
recycling bin if you do not have an icon
on your desktop you can always search it
on the Start menu but we're going to
open up our recycling bin first and we
can see that there is nothing in there
if there was it's very easy to restore
an item all you have to do is just right
click on the picture or icon or whatever
you right click on it and then you'll
click on restore and they would likely
restore back to the desktop or wherever
you deleted it from now I'm assuming
most of you guys have already checked
that but that's always a good place to
start so once you verify that it's no
longer in your recycling bin we're going
to navigate over to the Internet and I'm
gonna start with Google because that's
usually where most people starting point
is and I'm gonna type in Roku ve' or ec
UVA let me hit enter when the best match
is it comes up short saber kuva restored
the leaders files even if you've empty
the recycling bin this comes from the
makers of piriform so if I open that up
you want to download it directly from
them that's always recommended and if it
looks a little bit familiar is the same
people who make and develop CCleaner
so once we were on this page we can
download the free version by clicking on
the download free version line you want
to swap the free download if you want to
contribute you can always buy it but I
recommend just download the free version
and we can download it directly from
their domain or from file hippo comm I'm
gonna start from piriform calm because I
usually like Delanie from the makers
website and then it's looks like it's
about five point three megabytes or not
a very big download so I'm gonna save it
so once it's done downloading I'm gonna
run this file
it's gonna ask do you want to allow this
app to make changes to your device I'm
gonna side the yes
so it says by installing this product
you agree to our license agreement and
privacy policy I'm gonna select the
customize button at the bottom right
here because that's typically what I do
even though this is a trusted program
and I'm actually going to keep
everything checked here doesn't seem
like there's any third-party programs
that are being installed so I'm gonna
uncheck this box that says review
release notes and I'm just gonna go
right ahead and run Watauga I hope I'm
pronouncing it right this is how I've
always pronounced it so it's gonna say
welcome to recuva wizard next that's
going to ask what sort of phonology are
trying to recover now if you really want
to specify this is definitely the time
for the purpose of this video and you
can go do further searches from here you
don't have to just do one search and
you're done with the program you can
open this program back up and run
multiple searches so if you want to do
one at a time you're more than welcome
to I'm gonna say pictures and then I'm
gonna click on next and it's gonna say
where were the files so if they ended up
in the recycling bin you could sort this
if they were in your document folders to
get searched at as well and you're more
than welcome to search everywhere on
this computer and I typically would
recommend that to be honest once you've
selected that I'm gonna click on next
and then as a follow-up to this hand
even before you select other different
file types you can select this enable
deep scan the second time you run the
skin which should hopefully do a more
thorough job so you have multiple
avenues to explore with this utility
which is one reason I really like it so
I'm gonna click on start this should
begin scanning this will take a couple
moments so it's actually pretty quick
because this hard drive I believe is
only about 25 gigabytes so that's why
it's running so quick but we can see
that it's already found some interesting
items here now some of this might be
garbage because I definitely do not
remember these pictures but let's say we
switch to advancement right here which
is the typical view they usually see
these files in
look for something that you might
recognize like the name of the file that
always would help
so I'm gonna select this star highlight
that PNG or it's been through you're
looking for and I should note that how
the color is being distinguished here
the green means it's more than likely
fully recoverable the red means it's
probably been overwritten by other files
on your hard drive because once you
delete a file it becomes free rain for
other programs to overwrite parts of the
file making a corrupt and yellow I
believe is partially intact but it might
not be fully readable so keep that in
mind usually if it's red it's probably a
lost cause I'm gonna swipe this green
one right here
I'm gonna check mark box it in here you
have to check box the box right next to
it and then click on the recover button
and then you can sort the location for
the recovery I'm just gonna set the
desktop it's gonna ask you do you want
to restore it to the same Drive and that
makes sense if you had a corrupt hard
drive or something but we are not gonna
worry about that in this video so I'm
gonna click on ok so we see that this
image that was at one point on this
computer has been recovered now I
believe this was related to some other
program but it just requires a little
bit of focus actually go through and
check it's a lot easier to do with
documents it's a lot easier to
distinguish from what file is one so
just if we actually open up the program
after the first time we launch it so if
you wanted to run a follow-up scan then
you click on next let's say we search
documents now let's just say I'm not
sure where they were I'm gonna enable
the deep scan and it's gonna be a pretty
thorough process this might take a
couple moments actually you know what I
don't think I'm actually gonna let this
thing finish it's gonna take quite a
while but I mean I think you guys get
the point
a Documents it should have the file name
and then the path of the file so it's
gonna be pretty straightforward and like
I said it will show you the file name in
the path and so forth you have the check
box next to the file you want to recover
will have click on recover down here and
then select the path now this is not
going to be guaranteed to work for
everybody
the sooner and more recent you've
deleted the file the better likelihood
you're going to be able to recover
that's just the fact of life
but I do hope that this tutorial was
able to help you guys out and I will
catch you in the next tutorial goodbye
