Excuse me, do you know a particular file recovering software that can completely scan my hard drive for files I have deleted a long time ago well over a year ago and recover them for myself? Is it true just because you delete the files whether on your pc screen or recycle bin does not mean the file is completely gone? For example, would it be possible to recover my files I deleted in 2016 and 2017?
