I have been working on a 30 pages project and I had only saved the document in one directory without a backup elsewhere. Accidentally, my little brother selected and deleted everything saved it and shut down the computer.

How can I be able to recover my work because I only get a blank document?

Hi chemwaina,

My dear friend it’s really a very much severe condition and this type of mistakes are very much dangerous for us. It is also very difficult to restore all of your files of Word document because whenever one thing is deleted from a computer it never returns back. So I am telling you one solution which is a very easy way to restore files and that one is from recycle bin.

When we deleted the files then those files are not permanently removed from a computer but stored in a recycle folder so on your desktop there a is a folder of recycle bin open that one and then your file is there available you should right click on the file and then select a restore button.

It helps you to restore your Word file.

Cheers.

The file is not deleted but the contents inside the Word file has been deleted i.e. I can access my file but I cannot get all the contents.

Dear chemwaina,

That’s a sad thing. It’s really sad when you’re on something and it got deleted accidently. Without having any backup files it’s really a mess.

You can find your deleted file by a software named " Recover my files". It’s in the software Office tool sector.

Go to  the given website and download it. After downloading the software, install it. Run the program and make a full deleted/formatted recovery search and only tick the .doc box.

 I hope you will find your deleted .doc file by using it.

Thank you your response but it is not working.

Let me explain clearly what happened: I was working on some project which was more than 29 pages it was actually 30 pages to be precise. I was still working on it but a friend came in and my younger brother selected all the text in the document and deleted it accidentally.

He told me that he closed the file but when he was prompted if he wanted to safe the changes then he clicked yes i.e. he saved a blank document.

I am really having a hard time to recover what I had done before the text was deleted because the undo command is inactive.

I will really appreciate any help.

Hello again chemwaina

This is a hard problem. There is no way to get that save changes file because your brother already clicked yes. You have to do it all from the beginning. You could have used any software but have already promoted save yes option.

Sorry man, can’t help you at this one.

Deleted files could be obtained back. I have exercising several times with my computer that how could be the recovery of the files. You must Undo it and Redo it.

I have the better solution that I'm telling you. But another solution has been waiting for you.

This is Recycle Bin where you can able to see your deleted files. But how you could be able to find out Recycle Bin? You can see this Recycle Bin on your desktop as an icon. This is a very troublesome job when you have desired to back your deleted files.

You have the courage and try to work peacefully.

Although it’s a hard task to recover you can use the following Panda Program to recover the file:

Panda Software recovers files permanently from the Recycle Bin. Pandora recovery also allows you to find and recover deleted files even if you used Shift +Delete keys for permanent deletion. It recovers all files be it NTFS or FAT system by using the DOS prompt. 

Further you can as well recover songs, movies and pictures in all formats possible. The Panda software can be downloaded from the internet. It’s very small and does not consume much of your space. It’s probably 2.12 MB in size.

Try it now to recover your deleted work.
