   Open the Recycle Bin on your PC. Before you panic or try another method, double-check your Recycle Bin to make sure the file isn’t still in there. You’ll usually see the Recycle Bin icon on your desktop, but if you don’t, you can also fine it by pressing the Windows key, typing recycle, and clicking Recycle Bin.

2. 

   2

   Browse or search for a file. If your Recycle Bin has a lot of files, it may be helpful to use the search bar at the top-right corner. You can also simply scroll through the files to look for the one you need.

   Right-click a file and choose Restore. This will return the deleted file to the folder from which you deleted it.

   • To restore multiple files at once, hold down the Control key as you click each file, then right-click anywhere in the highlighted area and choose Restore.
   • You can also restore all deleted files from the Recycle Bin at once by clicking Restore all items at the top of the window.

   Know when to use this method. If you aren’t able to restore a file from the Recycle Bin or find it in your backup, this method can help you regain access to lost files.^[1]
   

   • You have to restore the missing files to a drive that is not the same drive the file was deleted from—this means that if you only have one hard drive, you’ll need to connect a USB flash or other external drive to your PC to restore the lost files. If you don’t have another drive to use, you won’t be able to use this method.
   • It’s not possible to restore files to or from a cloud storage or networked drive with this method.

2. 

   2

   Install Windows File Recovery by Microsoft. This utility might already be installed on some systems, but not all.

   • Open the Microsoft Store app from the Windows Start menu.
   • Search for Windows File Recovery.
   • If you see the option to do so, click Get and follow the on-screen instructions to install.
   • If the app is already installed, you’ll see Open instead.

3. 

   3

   Open Windows File Recovery. It’s easy—just type windows file recovery into the Windows Search field (press Windows key + S if you don’t see it), and then click Windows File Recovery in the search results. This will open a command prompt window.

   • If prompted, give the app permission to make changes to your computer.

4. 

   4

   Determine the mode you want to use. There are two different modes for restoring files:

   • Regular mode: Use this mode if the file you deleted was from a drive formatted with NTFS and the drive is not corrupted.
   • Extensive mode: Use this mode if the file you deleted was on a drive formatted as FAT or exFAT, which is common for flash cards and other removable media, or the drive is corrupted. This mode will take a little longer.
     • If you’re not sure which mode to use, start with Regular mode, and then try Extensive if that doesn’t work.

5. 

   5

   Use the winfr command to restore your files. The command will look like this winfr source-drive: destination-drive: /mode /switches file-or-folder. The /n switch lets you specify files and folders to recover. Here are some examples you can use in both regular and extensive modes:

   • If you want to recover all files ending with .JPEG from your pictures directory on the C drive to a recovery folder on your F drive, you’d use winfr C: F: /regular /n *UsersyourusernamePictures*.JPEG.
   • You can also use /n multiple times to recover files that meet multiple criteria. For example, to recover both JPEG and PNG files from your Pictures folder, you could use winfr C: F: /regular /n UsersyourusernamePictures*.JPEG /n UsersyourusernamePictures*.PNG.
   • To recover all files ending with .docx from any location on the original drive, you could use winfr C: F: /regular /n *.docx.
   • To recover your entire Documents folder from the C: drive to the F: drive, you’d use winfr C: F: /regular UsersyourusernameDocuments.
     • Note the trailing backslash at the end of the folder name—this is necessary when recovering an entire folder.

6. 6

   Press Y to confirm. Windows File Recovery will now attempt to recover the file(s). If the recover is successful, the files will be saved to the destination drive in a new folder called «Recovery_(date and time).

   

   • If you’re unable to recover the files in regular mode, run the same command again replacing /regular with /extensive.
   • Some file types are hidden from results by default, including .log, .vbs, .c, .cab, .py, and .lnk. If you are unable to find the type of file you’re looking for, run the recovery again, this time adding the /e switch to disable extended filtering.

   Open the File History tool. If you want to recover a file or folder you’ve accidentally overwritten or replaced with a newer version in your Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos, or Desktop folder, this method will help you get your original file(s) back. To open the tool, press the Windows key on your keyboard, type restore your files, and then click Restore your files with File History.^[2]
   

   • This method requires that you’ve enabled File History in your settings. File History works with a network or external drive, so if you don’t have one of those, you don’t have File History enabled.^[3]
     
   • If the file you want to recover no longer exists at all, you can restore its containing folder to a previous version that existed before you deleted the file.

2. 

   2

   Locate the file or folder you need in the File History tool. All of the files that have earlier versions saved will be visible here. Once you find the file, you’ll be able to browse the dates of previously saved versions.

3.

   Use the arrows to select the version to restore. Be sure to choose a version of the file or folder that existed before you made the change.
