I accidentally deleted some videos from my Android phone, but some important memories and work-related videos that I need to recover. I have already checked the trash folder on my phone and there's no way to restore the deleted files from there. I have tried looking for solutions online, but none seem to work.

I need help finding a reliable solution to recover deleted videos for Android on Windows 11 computer. Thanks.

Google Drive provides a seamless and efficient way to back up your essential data, ensuring that your photos, videos, documents, and other files are safely stored in the cloud. This backup solution is especially valuable in today's digital age, where data loss due to device failure, loss, or theft can be a significant concern.

1. Open Google Drive App: Start by opening the Google Drive app on your Android device. If you don't have it installed, you can download it from the Google Play Store.

2. Go to Trash: In the Google Drive app, locate the menu (three horizontal lines), often found in the top left corner. Tap on it to open the menu options and select "Trash" or "Bin," depending on your app's version.

3. Find Deleted Files: In the Trash or Bin, you'll see a list of files and folders that have been deleted. Browse through this list to find the videos and photos you want to recover.

4. Select Files for Recovery: Once you've found the files you wish to recover, tap on the three dots (more options) next to the file name and then select "Restore." For some versions, you might need to long-press the file to select it and then find the Restore option, often represented by a circular arrow symbol.

5. Restore Files: After selecting "Restore," your deleted videos and photos will be moved back to their original location in your Google Drive. From there, you can download them back to your device if needed.

If you cannot find your videos and photos in the Google Drive Trash, they might have been permanently deleted. Google Drive typically keeps files in the Trash for 30 days before permanently deleting them, although this duration can vary based on your settings and policies set by your organization (for workspace users).
