Windows File Recovery is an official Microsoft software that will allow you to recover almost any file that you have accidentally deleted from your PC, even if it is an important Windows file. It is important to keep in mind, however, that due to the way disk file management works, the sooner you try to recover the deleted file, the better your chances of recovering it.

A very simple command line interface

Some users may be intimidated by the Windows File Recovery interface, but it is actually very easy to use. The command line window itself will show you the actions you can perform, including some very useful examples. The process is simple: just enter the following command: winfr + the drive you want to rescue files from + the drive where you want to save the new files + /regular + /any additional parameters you want to add. The output should look something like this: "winfr C: D: /regular /n *.PDF". With this parameter, for example, you can recover all the PDF documents you have accidentally deleted.

You need to pay for the vast majority of deleted file recovery tools. They allow you to find the files you have deleted and then inform you that you must pay to complete the process.

In addition to this, there are many video tutorials that explain how to do it step by step.
