Hello /g/ I need your help.
I accidentally deleted an important file from my desktop. It's a .docx file, it should be easy to recover, right?
I've been running Recuva and Disk Drill but no luck! What software would you recommend for windows 10?
The things I know:
Last time I opened the file: 25/11/2016 at 1:20 a.m.
The full path was: C:\Users\user\Desktop\doc_p3.docx
Any, literally, any help would be so appreciated.

Make a linux usb, like Ubuntu and boot into the usb, then have a look in the folder. Often you can find the file sitting right there where you left it before deleting it. It's just not visible to windows. I have done this before, because when you delete it, it's not really totally gone.

If that does not work then there are other ways, but involves more work.

I was aware that deleted files are not really deleted right away on Windows... but can you really just see the files on GNU/Linux straight through the file manager without any special software?

Can deleted files on GNU/Linux be recovered?

Well, I have previously been able to recover deleted files like that myself.

That is not at all the same as booting from a usb. Better not download or install anything unneccesary to avoid overwriting the file in question. Just boot up on a live usb and go to the file.

Wait a minute... If you have the file on a SSD it might be gone forever.

Better just avoid using the harddisk at all until you have everything in order to download it. Boot from a cd or usb and don't even surf the internet on it until you have everything necessary to get the file.

You can literally blame Chrome and Firefox for this. Both browsers have been known to write a TB over the course a week.

Browse the net a lot? Even more.
