Generally, after we delete files from the computer hard drive or partition, files would disappear from the partition instantly, but they are still in Recycle Bin. However, most of us are always accustomed to emptying Recycle Bin after data deletion. So when we want to undelete files, we should think of it in two situations. For example, if Access database file is deleted accidently, we could recover it from following situations.
If we have just deleted Access database files from the partition, and not emptied Recycle Bin, we could restore them from Recycle Bin directly.
