Accidentally deleting photos can be a devastating experience, especially if the photos were important. Fortunately, there are a few ways to recover deleted photos. This comprehensive guide will provide you with a step-by-step process to help you recover your lost photos.
Step 1: Check Your Recycle Bin
The first step in recovering your deleted photos is to check your Recycle Bin. If the photo was recently deleted, it may still be in the Recycle Bin. To access the Recycle Bin, simply open it from your desktop or press the Windows key + R and type “Recycle Bin” into the search bar. Once you’ve opened the Recycle Bin, locate the photo you want to recover and right-click on it. Select “Restore” from the menu and the photo will be restored to its original location.
Step 2: Use File Recovery Software
If your photo is not in the Recycle Bin, you can try using file recovery software. There are many different types of file recovery software available online, so make sure to do some research before downloading one. Once you’ve downloaded and installed the software, run a scan of your computer for any deleted files. The software will then search for any files that have been deleted and allow you to recover them if they are found.
Step 3: Contact Your Cloud Storage Provider
If you have been backing up your photos to a cloud storage provider such as Google Drive or Dropbox, then there is a chance that they may still be available even if they have been deleted from your computer. Contact your cloud storage provider and ask them if they can help you recover any deleted photos. They may be able to provide you with access to an older version of the file or restore it from their backup servers.
Recovering deleted photos can be a difficult task but with these steps, you should be able to get back any lost photos quickly and easily. Be sure to always back up important files so that you don’t have to worry about losing them in case of an accident or system failure.
