Ashampoo-Undeleter helps you find and restore files you accidentally deleted from your computer. Modern storage systems often keep file path data even after a user clears the Recycle Bin. This software scans your storage drive to locate these lost files and brings them back to your folders.
This software runs on standard versions of the Windows operating system. Ensure your computer meets these basic specifications to perform a successful recovery:
Follow these steps to setup the application on your computer:
Once you install the program, follow this process to scan your drives:
To improve your results, stop using the affected drive immediately after you realize a file is missing. When Windows deletes a file, it marks that space as available for new data. If you write new data to the drive, you might overwrite the file you want to recover. Always save recovered files to a different drive to keep the data integrity high. This practice prevents permanent loss of your information.
Can I recover files from a formatted drive? Yes, the software works with most standard file systems even after a quick format.
Does this software work on external drives? Yes, you can connect external hard drives or USB sticks and scan them like any other drive.
Is the process safe? The software performs read-only operations during the scan. It does not modify your existing data during the search process.
