Windows 10: Is there a way to recover files from a deleted profile deleted through advanced system...

I have accidentally deleted a user profile containing important files. I did this through the advanced user settings under user profiles.After realizing my mistake, I did a system recovery to the recovery point made the day before. However, I noticed the file that I was looking for was not in the location I saved it to.What are the recovery options in such a case?

recover deleted data???

That was the word on the street (so to speak) all the way back to the DOS days.
Files are never really erased by the OS. Most every OS just marks the Directory entry for the file, that it was deleted. In the olden days, the filename "Mark.txt" would look like "?ark.txt".

PCTools had an undelete command in it's file manager. All you had to do was provide the first letter for a deleted file and PCTools would recover the file for you.

But if someone had deleted files and then did a defrag, well it was 99% certain that any deleted file was overwritten and gone forever.
Many logs are written to during bootup and can overwrite deleted file space, so the less activity performed on a drive after file deletion, the better the chance of recovering those files.

I too would like to know the name of that recovery program. I have one tucked away someplace but right now I don't even remember the name of it.*Confused
