Accidentally deleted an important file, emptied the recycle bin, or formatted the wrong drive? We recover deleted files for Long Island homes and businesses.
When you delete a file, it is not immediately erased from your drive. The space it occupied is simply marked as available. Until new data overwrites that space, the original file can be recovered. We use professional data recovery software to scan your drive for recoverable files and restore them. Time is critical since the more you use the computer after deletion, the more likely the deleted data gets overwritten. Stop using the computer and call us as soon as you realize files are missing.
We recover files in scenarios beyond simple deletion. Emptied your Recycle Bin or Trash? We can still find those files. Accidentally formatted a drive or USB? The data structure is gone but the data usually remains. Lost a partition during OS installation? We reconstruct the partition table and recover your files. Accidentally reformatted to the wrong file system? We read the original file system underneath. Each scenario requires different techniques, and we apply the right approach for your specific situation.
We recover all file types: Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, PDFs, photos, videos, emails, databases, and more. For Long Island businesses that have lost critical documents or financial records, we prioritize recovering the files you need most. For individuals who have lost family photos or personal files, we understand the emotional value and treat every recovery with care. We provide a list of all recoverable files for your review before charging for the recovery.

Usually, yes. Emptying the Recycle Bin marks the space as available but does not immediately erase the data. Recovery success depends on how much you have used the computer since deletion. If you emptied it today and call us now, chances are excellent. If you emptied it weeks ago and continued using the computer heavily, some files may be overwritten. Stop using the computer and call (516) 407-8111 for the best chances.

Yes. A standard format (quick format) does not erase data, it only removes the file system structure. We can usually recover the majority of files from a quick-formatted drive. A full format is more thorough but recovery is still often possible. Even after reinstalling an operating system, files from the previous installation can frequently be recovered from the unused portions of the drive. Call (516) 407-8111 for a free evaluation.
