i have a friend who has a laptop that has delete items that he wants to recover. the deleted items were in the trash and the trash was emptied. so i heard that even though things are &quot;deleted&quot; they aren't actually gone, something about the things are only marked as deleted, but they aren't gone until that part of the hard drive is used again. anyhow, is there some good software that could recover his &quot;deleted&quot; items? preferably free, but it doesn't have to be free.

i have a friend who has a laptop that has delete items that he wants to recover. the deleted items were in the trash and the trash was emptied. so i heard that even though things are "deleted" they aren't actually gone, something about the things are only marked as deleted, but they aren't gone until that part of the hard drive is used again. anyhow, is there some good software that could recover his "deleted" items? preferably free, but it doesn't have to be free.

hard drive recovery

Disaster Recovery is the planning for and creation of policies and procedures related to the resumption or continuation of an organization's functions following a catastrophic event. The term is most frequently used in relation to failure of networks, but DR preparations also include other business systems and personnel considerations.

Disaster Recovery

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.

Storage Software

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
