Answer» I just accidently DELETED some excel documents, and I went to get them out of the Recycle bin and they arn't there
Where can I get them from?? Did you double click the recycle bin folder? That should open to show contents.
Also - did you delete 'normally' or use shift+ delete - which scraps stuff fully. Chances are the files are there somewhere and you may have to find an undelete prog somewhere and do a SEARCH - there are MANY progs out there.Whats an undelete prog? Haha sorry im a bit of a beginner at this!Under usual conditions - deleting does not delete PERMANENTLY - it just lets the file table know the space is ''freed up'' for use by other things. A full delete usually would involve over-writing with zeros or similar (DOD type delete)
Therefore - files can still be there even if no longer showing - and there are programs to help get at these files. No specific recomendation for you but a search on something like "undelete files" might yield some options. There are numerous progs out there.
