Putting things in order in the computer, the user can accidentally delete the folder he needs. To get it back, you can try several options. Which one is suitable can only be determined by knowing the specific situation.
Instructions
Step 1
In most cases, files and folders are not immediately removed from your computer. They are placed in the "Trash" folder, the contents of which can be viewed from the desktop. To restore a folder from the trash can, open it by clicking on the icon with the left mouse button. Find the folder you need, select it and click on the "Restore object" link in the typical tasks pane on the left side of the window.
Step 2
Alternative methods: right-click on the folder in the trash can and select the "Restore" command from the context menu. Or click on the folder you want to return with the left mouse button. A new "Properties: [Your Folder Name]" dialog box will open. On the "General" tab, click on the "Restore" button in the lower right part of the window. After that, look for the restored folder in the directory where it was originally located.
Step 3
In the event that you have already managed to empty the trash, try restoring the system from the checkpoint when the deleted folder was still on the computer. This function can only be used if the restore function is enabled.
Step 4
Click the "Start" button or the Windows key, click on the "All Programs" item to expand the menu. In the "Standard" folder, select the "System" subfolder and click on the "System Restore" task. A new dialog box will appear. Select a suitable checkpoint (date) and click on the "Restore" button. After restarting the operating system, check the directory in which the folder was located before deletion.
Step 5
If this operation did not help, install a special application on your computer to recover lost data, for example, EasyRecovery. Examine the program interface and choose the option that suits you: specify the drive from which the necessary files and folders were deleted, scan. The method of action may differ in different applications, but, as a rule, the interface of all utilities is intuitive, so you should have no difficulty in restoring the folder you need.
