Some days back, I got a question on the same topic and the question was like this:
How to recover shift deleted files? I mistakenly used shift + delete and permanently deleted some of my files from my system. And now when I was trying to locate the files in my recycle bin, it was not there. I guess it has been permanently deleted. So is there any way to restore permanently deleted files or how to restore shift deleted files?
I guess many of use face issues like this.
We unintentionally delete some of our files and then lost it permanently. Just a simple delete is not an issue as you can restore it from Recycle Bin but shift + delete means deleting the file permanently.
