Luaine Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Where is the file located ? Is it C drive where Windows installed ? You should install Recuva and perform deep scan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalju Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Your file is not deleted permanently! It is simply deleted, ie it isn't visible, but it is on your drive. If You want to delete permanently, you must it overwrite with zeros, with random data, etc. Then it cannot be recovered. But now You simply must use some good recovery software and you may to restore all without the faults, but there is also the possibility that some files are already damaged, over-written..
