In case you accidentally delete your important files and folders, or your hard drive fails, you need a good file recovery tool to help you get the data back. This how-to article explains how to delete file recovery in Windows 7. It also covers important points related to hard drive recovery in general, and file deletion in particular.
How to Delete File Recovery in Windows 7
If you have accidentally deleted important files from your computer and are looking for a way to recover these deleted files, then you need to use a file recovery tool. File recovery tools are programs that can help you restore your lost data back onto your hard drive.
File recovery programs work by scanning the hard drive for specific file types, such as pictures, music, or documents. There are many different ways to delete files in Windows 7. When deleting a single file in Windows 7, you can do so by right-clicking on the file and selecting Delete or by pressing Ctrl+X/ Cmd+X on your keyboard.
If that were not enough options to get rid of the file, there is also another button which allows you to move the file to the Recycle Bin and delete it immediately after it’s moved there. When deleting multiple files at once, you can press Shift+Ctrl+Del on your keyboard and select Delete from the pop-up menu that appears.
Confirm you need to delete file recovery
First, you should make sure that you need to delete file recovery. To do this, you’ll need to open the Properties window for your hard disk drive in the Control Panel and look for the “Storage” tab. If the Disk Defragmenter tool is listed under this tab, it means that your PC already has a file recovery tool available.
If the Disk Defragmenter tool is not listed on this tab, click on “View all properties,” which will open up a new window with all of your disks. In this new window, select the drive you want to edit and scroll down to find the “Recovery” tab. This is where you will find whether or not your PC has any file recovery tools installed.
Backup your files and folders first
Even if you don’t want to use a file recovery tool, it’s important that you backup your files and folders every now and then. By backing up your data regularly, you will be able to recover most of the information in case something happens to your computer or hard drive.
When deleting a file, make sure you do so from within the actual folder where the file was saved rather than from outside of the folder because doing so will cause confusion when trying to find the deleted file.
