Merely operating Mac which differentiates a lot from Windows, I performed misoperations, and then suffered from unintentional data deletion, when I tried to drag some files to somewhere. The disturbing thing is that I have no idea to recover Trash on Mac? What can I do to improve the situation?
 

Suggestions for Undoing Mac Data Deletion

1. Check the status of Trash
Like Recycle Bin in Windows, Trash Bin in Mac also enables users to restore data. Thus, users are supposed to firstly check the exact status of Trash Bin to make sure whether the deleted data are in it or not. Users can find the deleted data there if they only execute Delete command. In such cases, they just need to drag the found data to desktop directly, so as to restore them. However, users would not find data if they emptied Trash or execute Command + Delete operation. Well then, how can they retrieve such kind of data?
 
2. Protect problem data partition from being operated
At this time, users might as well stop any operation to the problem partition including data writing, data copying, data pasting, etc. The reason why is: after a file is deleted, its contents would not disappear immediately. Instead, the space occupied by the file is marked as available for reuse. Once users write new data to the partition, the data may take up the space, and overwrite deleted file. It is noteworthy that there is no way to recover the overwritten data. Therefore, users have to keep their computer original, if they want to get deleted file data back.
