Sometimes when we deleted a file and empty the Mac Trash bin, we might think that the files are gone forever from our Mac. But is it true? Files cannot be recovered? The answer is “NO”.

Why The Lost Files Can Be Recovered
When you deleted files from your Mac hard drive (or other storage device,) even like we discuss in this article-empty Mac trash bin, it seems that all the files are gone and you cannot find them anywhere. Actually, what the operating system only does is going to delete the catalog and free up the space of the files so that there is enough space for you to store new files into your hard drive later. At this moment, you still have chance to recover these files no matter you format your hard drive or delete files from your hard drive.
But one thing you need to pay attention to is that if you put any new files into your hard drive, these new files will occupy the space of the “deleted files”-this is the so-called data overwritten situation. Once this happens, you will lose the chance to recover the files.
How to Recover Files Step by Step
Step 1-Run uFly Data Recovery for Mac
After installing uFly Data Recovery for Mac on your Mac, you will see there is a simple but tiny interface. All function buttons are listed on the interface so users no need to find any hidden option. This can help users even computer novices can handle it without any stress.

While running the software, you will see your hard drive will be listed on the interface. You can simply click it to choose and then click “Scan”. The software will scan deeply for finding the lost files.
