Even if the deleted file(s) are no longer in the Recycle Bin, you can easily undelete files using Advanced File Recovery. The program supports FAT, NTFS, and exFAT file systems. It also gives two scanning options - Quick Scan and Deep Scan. The tool is easy to use and uses an advanced algorithm to get back lost or deleted data.

Before you purchase Advanced File Recovery, the best way to know whether the data is recoverable or not is to use the trial version of the product and take advantage of the preview feature. Once the scanning is done through either of the scanning modes, the recovery tool before restoring data allows previewing deleted files. This helps check if the tool can recover data or not.

The time taken to scan a drive depends upon the scanning type, amount of deleted data, and the computer's performance. If you perform Deep Scan, it will be more time-consuming than a Quick Scan.

Recovery of a deleted file without software depends on whether the file is in Recycle Bin or not. If the deleted file can be located in Recycle Bin, you can restore it without software. However, if you have emptied the Recycle Bin, or it's been more than 30 days since the file is deleted, you will have to use a third-party tool to recover permanently deleted data.
