    Is there a way to recover lost files?


    I was deleting my files from my OneDrive but it apparently also deleted my files from my pc. It's nowhere to be found in the trash bin because it was "too big" to put there, any way I can get those back? These files are important.

    :)

    Hi,

    There are ways to recover some missing files on Windows 10. For us to help you recover them, we'd like to ask a few things. Kindly answer the following:

    • Are you using an Administator account to search for the missing folders/files?
    • Are you able to find the missing files/folders using Search?
    • What specific files/folders are missing?

    Meanwhile, as an initial troubleshooting, we suggest that you check this

    Recovering Lost Files

    Hi, Shaun.

    Thank you for posting in Community. I understand your concern and we will try to assist you in the best way we can.

    Before we proceed, I would like you to provide the information below:

    Can you find the files now, if you go to windows.old?

    I would suggest that you perform Power Drain and check you can find the files and folder that you have lost. To do so follow the steps below:

    • Unplug the charger and remove the battery of your laptop, if using a desktop remove the power cord.
    • Press and hold the Power button for 30sec
    • Plug the charger/power cord and restart system

    If you can't find a file on your computer or you accidently modified or deleted a file, you can restore it from a backup (if you're using Windows backup) or you can try to restore it from a previous version. Previous versions are copies of files
    and folders that Windows automatically saves as part of a restore point. Previous versions are sometimes referred to as shadow copies.

    Hope this information helps.
