Recovering a deleted JPEG or any specific file, especially one that is uniquely named, requires careful steps to avoid overwriting the file on your storage device.
1. Stop Using the Device
As soon as you realize the file is deleted, stop saving or downloading new files to that drive. This prevents overwriting the sectors where your deleted file may still exist.
2. Use Data Recovery Software
Install Data Recovery Software: To recover the file, you will need a data recovery tool. Since you are associated with Panda Assistant, you can try using that software. Alternatively, other tools like Recuva, EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard, or Disk Drill can be used.
Steps for recovery using data recovery software:
Download and install the software on a different drive (not the one where the file was deleted).
Launch the software and select the drive where the JPEG file was stored.
Scan the drive: Choose the option for a deep scan, which searches for files that may have been deleted or lost.
Recover the file: Once the scan is complete, browse through the list of recoverable files and select your JPEG file. You can also search for it by the unique name if the software supports filtering by name.
3. Check the Recycle Bin/Trash
If the file was recently deleted, it may still be in the Recycle Bin (Windows) or Trash (Mac). Simply restore it from there.
4. Use a Backup
If you have a backup system in place (e.g., external hard drives, cloud services like Google Drive or Dropbox), check there for a previous version of your file.
5. Seek Professional Data Recovery Services
If the file is extremely important, and you’re unable to recover it using software, consider professional data recovery services. They have specialized tools and techniques to recover even damaged or corrupted files.
