Having unintentionally emptied your computer’s Recycle Bin, you later discover that you truly needed something that had been in there. Fortunately, there’s no need to panic, since the situation is perfectly safe. The deleted object can be retrieved if you are running Windows Backup.

You can search for Windows Backup to bring up the options of File History, OneDrive, or Backup and Restore (Windows 7).

To do this, here’s what you need to do:

-Locate the Trash can icon on your computer’s desktop and press the right mouse button on it.
-Use the right-click menu to choose Open.
-Look for the file you wish to recover in the next window. You may also look for the file in the search menu.
-Find the file you want to restore, then right-click on it and select Restore from the option that appears.
-Simply choose all of the files you want to restore.
-Then pick Restore the chosen items or Restore all things from the Manage menu in the toolbar.
