Causes and Recovery Solutions for deleted Mac Files

Accidental file deletion and loss of valuable data thereof has been always one of the biggest data loss problems for any computer user. There are many instances, when either due to your own mistakes or any system related problem, important files get deleted. Even, sometimes you intentionally delete folders without noticing that there are some important files inside and only realize the problem later, when the folders have already been deleted. But, there are  many Mac File Recovery software available in the market, using which you can easily recover all your deleted files.

Apart from user mistakes, there are many other reasons behind the deletion or loss of files from the Mac. As a whole, some of the mostly encountered incidents are listed as below:

• Virus or malware infection causing file loss
• Accidental or intentional formatting of volume/drive
• Operating system malfunction casing deletion of files or formatting of volumes
• Forceful formatting due to severe file system corruptions
• Deletion of files following any newly installed software or hardware contradiction etc.

Apart from this, many Mac users encounter problems while performing operations through 'Finder'. Sometimes, when deleting large sized files through the Finder, the file gets completely deleted from the system, without going  to the 'Trash'.

Note: 'Finder' is the default file manager in Mac with which you can perform various operations, including creation of files, deletion and many others.

In the above situation, the complete deletion of files, without going into the trash is because of the fact that either the Finder is corrupt or you have set the option- “not to warn before deletion”.

Whatever be the reason behind the deletion of the file, once the file is deleted, it is gone and analysis of the reason will not bring the file back. But, the most interesting fact about file deletion is that when a file is deleted from the system, the OS removes all the entries of the file from the memory, but the content of the file remains in the drive intact.

Thus, if those lost entries of files can be retrieved, the files can be recovered, without much problem. The Mac data recovery softwares like Stellar Phoenix Mac Data recovery,  are available in the market. The software has been designed with many innovative algorithms, which read the lost entries of files and recover all the deleted or formatted files back. The utility is completely safe in its file recovery process and does not make any change in the format of the recovered files. Above all, the user interfaces of the software is quite interactive and thus the software is immensely easy-to-use.
