Preparing The Ground For Deleted File Recovery

Deleted file recovery is made possible because the file you accidentally deleted is still on your system

. This is especially true if you have stopped saving to the hard drive of your system.

But why shouldn't I save anything else on this hard drive? Good question and the answer is simply this, when you do, there is a possibility the very data that you save next is the one that writes over the file you thought was gone forever. And getting your missing file(s) back when this happens might mean using deleted file recovery services. The thing here is companies that offer these services charge quite much, if you know what I mean.

To understand this, it is necessary for you to appreciate the workings of computers in the deleting of files. When files are deleted, they are not removed from the computer. What happens is that they are left in their respective positions pending when the operating system will choose them for overwriting. This can happen with your next save after deleting the file you want.

This leads to recovering deleted file. If you are thinking of carrying out recovery of your deleted files all by yourself, it is important you understand some few things which will be shared in subsequent paragraphs. If you are using Windows, you will also learn a thing or two about NTFS data recovery (NTFS a.k.a New Technology File System is the standard Windows file system).

The first thing to note before using software to recover file from your hard drive is that it is risky to attempt file recovery on the same hard drive with a single partition where your file was deleted. Such action could destroy your file recovery effort.

This might happen because recovery software used for retrieving lost file(s) require space on your hard drive to keep recovered files. This means that the software may overwrite on some already stored information. This can have adverse effect(s) on your computer and invariably recovery efforts.

If you find yourself in this situation mentioned in paragraph five (5) then the best thing for you to do is to either transfer the hard drive with this problem into a different system or install a new operating system into a new hard drive in your computer. This procedure is safe. Deleted file recovery on Windows NT is achieved through NTFS data recovery.

Not all data recovery software can be used for NTFS data recovery. This is due to incompatibility. Different software are compatible with different file systems. I don't know if there is any software, which is compatible with all file systems. If there is, it will most likely be expensive. Please take note of all that I have said because it will only help you in achieving deleted file recovery.
