    How to find which process deleted my file in Windows


    In simplest terms, what is the quickest way or program which can help identify who/which process has deleted a file. Even in the latest version of Process Monitor by SysInternals, I couldn't find an event/filter that directly tells that "This is a delete operation and performed by a certain PID or process name".Am I missing something? I haven't found a concrete/clear answer anywhere in MS forums/community.Note: This question is asked with perspective to individual PC's running Windows 10/11 and not running on a domain or group policy.

    :)
