Computer help
Does anyone know how to or can retrieve deleted files from my Dell computer?
I need these files, they are unreplaceable.

Pat---You may well be pooched. There are free software downloads to retrieve deleted files, but I have tried them and they don't work very well. If it is critical, take it to a computer data recovery place and have them do it.---BrianOld guy hot rodder

files that have been deleated can be retrieved as long as they have not been written over or formatted with Department of defense grade formatters, as the removed files will leave a 'shadow' of where and what they were and that can be recovered..
the DOD grade formatters, erase the information and then wright junk info overtop a few times... but in any case you need to send your HD to a data recovery placeYou don't know what you've got til it's gone

I've Been through that nightmare before. Only chance of getting them back is a Data Recovery Company.
I believe this was somewhere around 2015, Rick, Rosie and Johnboy
