How To Recover Permanently Deleted Files For Free On Windows 10/8/7
Ғылым және технология
How to recover deleted files, like documents and photos, from your Windows device for free.
Recuva description (From Piriform):
Accidentally deleted an important file? Lost files after a computer crash? No problem - Recuva recovers files from your Windows computer, recycle bin, digital camera card, or MP3 player!
Recuva can recover pictures, music, documents, videos, emails or any other file type you’ve lost. And it can recover from any rewriteable media you have: memory cards, external hard drives, USB sticks and more!
Unlike most file recovery tools, Recuva can recover files from damaged or newly formatted drives. Greater flexibility means greater chance of recovery.
Sometimes you want a file gone for good. Recuva’s secure overwrite feature uses industry- and military-standard deletion techniques to make sure your files stay erased.
This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops, and tablets running the Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 7 operating systems. Works for all major computer manufactures (Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, Samsung)

TY FOR SAVING MY LIFE TO MY DAD
I'm just here to rant. I did an activity for school for 5 hours and the deadline was supposed to be 4 hours ago. I accidentally used shift+delete on it because that's what I usually do to a file, and I didn't realize it immediately and also renamed the folder it was in by accident. I've tried many programs, and I'll also try this one once I wake up, hopefully it comes back, nevertheless, I cried and I'm depressed right now. It would've probably been okay for me if it wasn't the only activity I have, but damn I have 8 more to go and they're fucking killing me. It's 4 AM, guess it's time for bed. Sucks. I won't hope that this works, but I'll still try.

If you guys are asking about if the programs I tried worked or not. It didn't really go so well, some apps showed a file similar in size but my computer was never able to read or retrieve anything. If you guys are asking for the continuation of my story though, I just re-did it once I woke up and it went faster since I just had to remember how I originally did things. So it went smoothly, just a major deduction in my score from the teacher though.

If the files you guys are missing are super important though, I recommend trying because it might work for you, just didn't for me. It was pretty okay for me since it was just a school assignment in the end.
