I have just deleted the wrong Excel spreadsheet, and it isn't in the recycle bin- is there any way I can restore it? I even clicked 'yes' to say I was sure I wanted to delete it. What a damn fool.
If you haven't used Excel since you're in with a chance.
Try opening Excel from your "Start" "Programs" menu and it will load a blank worksheet. You may see straight away a list of recoverable files on your left or you may have to click "File" first.
If it didn't go to the recycle bin then either it was too large or it was deleted from a network drive. If it was a network drive do you have IT people that take backups?
It was a Network Drive. Our IT people do not respond to emails and the phone line to them is constantly engaged...
I have a feeling I will be redoing all 400 entries and associated formulae...
What a fool.
Provided that the disk where your file was stored has not been overwritten, then there is a good chance that you can recover it. I have used the program and it is quick and effective
all you have to do is click start then click search then type in the name of it etc then search then it should appear if not try downloading a undlete programme
