• How files are deleted

As Marketers, Copy writing is not an easy task, sometimes you can work on a document or content to be published and sometimes accidentally delete the file. This can be very painful after a days hard work, makes it even worse if you have been working late. So you want to badly recover the deleted file. What do you do? What happens when files are deleted? Are there chances of recovery?

How files are deleted

When a file is deleted from your computer it is not really deleted. It is simply removed from the directory of files in the folder. Even though you can no longer see the file in the folder, its contents still exist 100% intact at this point.

If you’re using Windows and you deleted the file using Windows Explorer, the file will have been moved to the Recycle Bin. If you’re a Mac user, it’s moved to the Trash. If you use Linux KDE, it’s the Wastebin. Whatever the bucket shaped object is called, as long as a file remains there it can easily be restored in its entirety, with no problem at all. So the first thing to do when you want to recover a deleted file is look in the Recycle Bin / Trash / Wastebin.
