Is there any way to recover deleted files from SSD?

It is indeed frustrating to accidentally delete files on an SSD, but according to my personal experience, if the operation is timely, there is still hope to recover deleted files on the SSD (especially if they have been deleted recently). The following are two methods that do not require third-party tools:

Method 1: Use the "Previous Versions" function (system protection must be enabled in advance)
If the system restore point or file history backup is enabled before deletion, you can restore it through the "Previous Versions" that comes with Windows:

1. Right-click the parent folder (or disk partition) where the deleted file is located, and select Properties → Previous Versions.
2. If there is a backup version (displaying the date and time), select it and click Open to manually copy the lost file.

⚠️ Key condition: "System Protection" must be turned on before deletion (it may be turned off by default). If it has never been set, this method will not work.

Method 2: Use the Windows built-in tool Windows File Recovery
Microsoft officially provides a command line tool (free) that supports the recovery of some files from SSDs, but the operation is complicated:

1. Download and install Windows File Recovery from the Microsoft Store.
2. Open the command prompt as an administrator and enter the command (example):

winfr C: D: /regular /n \Users\your username\target folder\*

    3. C: is the partition where the deleted files are located, and D: is the location where the recovered files are saved.

   4. /regular is suitable for quick scanning. If it is ineffective, use /extensive (deep scanning, which takes a long time).

   5. Specify the file name or path after /n (wildcard * is supported).

After the scan is completed, check whether there are recovered files in the output directory (the file name may be shuffled).

⚠️ Key to success rate:

• Stop writing to the SSD immediately! New data will overwrite the deleted files, resulting in permanent loss.
• If the SSD supports TRIM and has been triggered (most are turned on by default), the probability of recovery is extremely low.

If the above method does not work and the file is extremely important, you can try professional data recovery services (paid), but the success rate of SSD is much lower than that of mechanical hard disks due to the underlying erasure mechanism. Important files must be backed up regularly!
