• Always double check the confirmation pop-up when you are deleting files.
• The more time elapsed after deletion and commencing the recovery, the less it is possible to correctly recover deleted files.
• More time elapsed after deletion and commencing the recovery may also result in recovering distorted files, so check them.
• If "Deleted File Recovery" does not recover the files or photos you need, then as per above you need to try "Complete Recovery", which is a far more comprehensive recovery process.
  

SD card deleted and need to restore?

Hi I deleted all my files from a SD card. Is there a way that I can restore them using my Laptop?

Because of this, you will want to work to recover your files as soon as possible, before new data overwrites the old data, making it impossible to recover.
