What do I do to recover deleted files in Windows 7?
The probability to bring deleted files back depends on the deletion method you used:
1. So when you delete a file using Explorer 'Delete', the file is not deleted permanently from your computer - the file is placed to the Recycle Bin. The Recycle Bin works like a temporary storage for deleted files until you empty it. This gives you an opportunity to easily recover accidentally deleted files to their original location. So the first thing you should do to recover deleted files in Windows 7 is to check the Recycle Bin.
