How to Undo Empty Trash to Get Back Deleted Files on Mac - 0 views

David Watson on 12 May 15This happened from time to time to many people: you deleted some files on Mac and emptied trash to remove it completely from your system (at least you think so). But finally found out that you had deleted important files. You asked yourself why you did that, but it was too late.Really too late? No, you still have the last chance to get them back. When the disaster strikes, calm down first and make sure whether you've backed them up at some other places, e.g. an external hard drive. If not, you need third-party recovery software to undo Empty Trash and retrieve your files. Why is it possible to undo Empty Trash? It has something to do with the security mechanism of file system. In fact, when you deleted files and even emptied from Trash, they're still existing on your hard drive but just become inaccessible. They will disappear permanently only by overwritten by new files.
