- An active restore point must exist for the file or folder you want to recover. In order to create new restore points, go to “Control Panel > System and Security > System > System Protection” and click on “Create” to create a new restore point.
- Files or folders deleted from external devices may not go to the Recycle Bin. This could result in the permanent deletion of the files, so it is important to be cautious while deleting files from external devices.
- The Recycle Bin has limited storage space. Once the space is filled, older files will be automatically deleted to make room for newer ones. Therefore, it is important to regularly empty the Recycle Bin to avoid permanent deletion of important files.
Step 2: Select the “Albums” tab at the bottom.
Step 3: Scroll down and select the “Recently Deleted” album.
Step 4: Select the photos or files you want to recover.
Step 5: Click on “Recover” to restore the files to their original location.
