In trying to keep your Windows PC clean, it's easy for you (or your cleaning software) to get overzealous. Sooner or later, you're going to delete something you meant to keep, and salvaging data from beyond the Recycle Bin can be a challenge.

Windows machines do not permanently erase data until new files google backup android overwrite the space on the hard drive allotted for deleted ones. So if your deletion was recent, you stand an excellent chance of recovering your files. The easiest solution is to arm yourself with data recovery software.

Business users may also be interested in Stellar Phoenix Pro, which can create a safe, cloned version of a hard drive called an "image" to make restoring infected files safer.

Features: R-Studio offers everything a home user needs in a data recovery service.

If Windows itself has been damaged, you can use R-Studio to hunt for files via a bootable USB drive.
