“A few days back my drive was showing full so I decided to delete several files on my Windows 10 system. I randomly selected some files and deleted all of them at once. After emptying the Recycle Bin folder I realized that I had removed some essential excel files along with redundant MS Office files. While quickly moving the mouse pointer to select unnecessary documents, I selected my valuable excel files as well. I don’t want to lose those excel files. Can anyone suggest to me how to get back Excel files deleted from the Recycle Bin? Please help”
