As the number of computers are increasing day by day, the people are getting addict of it. Many tech savvy persons like me used to store so many useful and important information in their computer systems. There comes many times, when you realize that some of your personal or professional files get deleted accidentally and you need them badly.

What will you do in such situation, except regretting and crying? Let me tell you, you should use any data recovery software’s to get back you deleted files easily. There are many data recovery software’s available out there. Here in this post I am going to tell you how to recover shift deleted or permanently deleted files in windows 10/7/8/8.1.

Just deleting a files from hard disk drive doesn’t mean it is deleted permanently. Do check out Recycle Bin to find out the file. All files that are deleted first goes to recycle bin in windows. If the file was stored in a cloud storage service like Dropbox, Google Drive, or SkyDrive, be sure to log into your account on the service’s website and check your trash there — you may find the file is still recoverable. Still if you are unable to find the file, then you may search for it using Windows Explorer or File Explorer window by its name. Hopefully the file was accidentally moved elsewhere and you can find it again.

Windows has built-in backup tools which are made for the betterment of persons. If you are using Windows 7 then you may find that there is a Previous Versions tool in it, which can help you to get back your deleted files. This tool works automatically, so it may have created a backup of your file, even if you haven’t set anything up. If you want to check it, then go to that folder from where you have deleted the file, then right-click on it, and select Restore previous versions. If this tool have created any backup of your folder, then you can view them here and when you have found one, click the Open button to browse them — you may find a backup copy of your important file.

Recuva is one of the best data recovery software for windows. It is very easy to use and offer some optional advanced features as well. Recuva can recover files from hard drives, external drives (USB drives, etc.), BD/DVD/CD discs, and memory cards. It works very well on older version of windows too, such as Windows XP, Server 2008/2003 and older Windows versions like 2000, NT, ME and 98. It doesn’t matter which version of windows you are using, because it is available for both 32-Bit and 64-Bit operating systems. Undeleting a file with Recuva is as easy as deleting one. I highly recommend that you try Recuva first if you need to recover a file.

Puran File Recovery is un-doubtly a great software to recover deleted files from windows. Puran File Recovery identified more files than most other tools, so you should definitely give it a try. Puran File Recovery will even recover lost partitions if they haven’t been overwritten yet. It is very easy to use, and one can easily recover his deleted or lost file using this data recovery software. This software is available for Windows XP, 7, 8, 8.1 and also available in portable form for both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows so it doesn’t require installation.

Glary Undelete is a great free software to recover deleted files in windows. It is very easy to use too like other tools of this list, but it have a great user interface which is much better than other tools of this list. One of the biggest advantage of using Glary Undelete is that it will show you “Folders” view, a Windows Explorer-style view of recoverable files, and a prominent “State” indication for each file, suggesting how likely a successful file recovery will be. You can recover deleted files from hard drives, USB drives, memory cards and external hard disks too.

Pandora Recovery is an advanced tool to recover deleted files from windows. If you are tech savvy person, then you must try it out. It have the best wizard which will help you to get back you deleted files with powerful scanning. There is a more advanced “Surface Scan” in Pandora Recovery which recovers and scans the drives more quickly than any other data recovery tools. It worked perfectly on Windows Vista, XP, Server 2003, and 2000 but sometimes it lags on Windows 7, that’s why I listed in on last. But it is not that bad either.

Deleted files don’t go elsewhere for most of the times, but they are not always easy to recover. You can prevent this type of situation by performing regular backups of your system. If you will enable File History or Windows Backup functionality then it will give you some relief for sure.
