The recycle bin is an application that comes as a pre installed part of Windows operating systems. The function of this application is to store and compress files that the user no longer needs in order to make space on the hard disk for new files or software.

If the user feels the need to use a file that has been deleted for the system, to wit "sent to the recycle bin", the process for restoring this file to its original source is fairly simple. It simple requires the user to open the recycling bin, right click on the file that needs to be recovered and click on "restore file". This will restore the previously deleted file to the location it was deleted from.

Most users periodically "empty" their recycle bin. When a user attempts to empty their recycle bin, they get a prompt, a warning of sorts that explains to the user that doing so will permanently delete the file from the computer’s hard disk. This means that, once the recycling bin has been emptied, the files that were once stored inside the recycling bin will no longer be available for restoration to the computer’s hard drive.

However, though the operating system informs users that the files have been permanently deleted, there is a way to recover these files within a certain time frame. This is possible due to the fact that Windows makes the file space available for use by changing one character in the file table in order for it to not be displayed or discoverable in the computer’s hard drive.

There are several programs and applications that can be used in order to retrieve deleted files. These programs decode the hidden file and make it discoverable again within the computer’s hard drive. However, only files that have deleted fairly recently can be recovered even through using such software. This is because, as more files are permanently deleted, the operating system deletes older permanently deleted files piece by piece. Files that were permanently deleted a long time ago, after which several other files were permanently deleted, might not be able to be recovered, or, if recovered, they would be incomplete or corrupted, which might render them unreadable.

Some software that can help you recover permanently deleted files are "Handy Recovery" and "EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard". Such software is not usually free to use, but provides an easy to use interface that you can use to restore and recover the files that have been permanently deleted from your system.

Most data recovery software starts off by asking you what file type you wish for it to search for, after which it will provide you with a list of permanently deleted files of that file type that do not have any corrupted data. You can choose the files that you wish to recover from this easily navigable list, and the software will retrieve these files and restore them to their original file source.
