Recovering Deleted Files

To recover a deleted file:

  1. Check the Recycle Bin (Windows) or Trash (macOS).
  2. If not there, check if File History (Windows) or Time Machine (macOS) is enabled and restore from a backup.
  3. If you use a cloud service like OneDrive or Google Drive, check the 'Trash' or 'Deleted Files' section.

Act quickly, as deleted files may be overwritten. If you can’t recover the file, submit a ticket to IT with details about the file and when it was deleted.
