Deleted Files

[Katrina]

My son dumped my recycle bin. Is there any way to retrieve deleted files after the recycle bin has been emptied?

Hi Katrina and Welcome to Free PC Help Forum.

If the files haven't been over written you may be able to recover them.
I usually use Recuva, http://www.piriform.com/recuva/download or
Recover My Files. http://www.recovermyfiles.com/
Recuva is free and Recover My Files has a trial version that works well.

Oh, thank you. i'll try that.

Let us know how you make out with it.

Good luck with that one in most cases they will be gone.

I was able to salvage some of them. The rest were corrupted.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Actually it is good news you got any of them.
