Walkthrough
Suppose you mistakenly shift deleted an important document (your Aadhaar card and PAN card details in this example) from your personal documents folder
(C:\Users\ashis\Documents\Personal Documents). How will you recover it?
- Download the EaseUS Data Recovery Tool through the official link:
EaseUS Free Data Recovery Software for PC [2024 Updated] – EaseUS
- Click on the Free Download button. Complete the download and run the setup file.
- Follow all the installation prompts (accepting the license agreement and choosing the destination folder for installation) and launch the application.
- Choose the Select Folder option to scan. Then, Click on the Search for Lost Data button.
- Browse the folder from where you deleted your personal documents.
- A scan will be initiated. It will first perform a Quick Scan and then an Advanced Scan. The Quick Scan recovers recently deleted files, while the Advanced Scan searches for files lost due to formatting, corruption, or long-term deletion.
- Once the scan is complete, select the Aadhaar card and PAN card files and then click on the Recover button.
- Choose the destination path to save the recovered files.
Note: Do not save it on the same drive from where the files were deleted (to avoid overwriting lost data)
- So, either select a different drive if you have partitioned your hard disk or save it to the cloud. In this case, we are saving it to OneDrive.
- Click on Accept.
- After you click the Accept button, you will be logged in to your OneDrive. Go back to the app and click the Save button.
- Recovery is complete now.
- Go to OneDrive and verify the recovered files. An EaseUS_Recovery folder will be automatically created, where your documents are recovered.
