Deleted excel file

[Kent]

Hi all,

I work a helpdesk and have a user that inadvertently
deleted an Excel spreadsheet that she had just created (no
backup). Since it is not in the recycle bin, is there a
way to recover this file or is it lost? Thanks in advance.

Hi Kent,

If the file is not listed in the Recycle Bin or elsewhere on the user's
system, it is likely not recoverable; however, the user may want to check
with third-party utilities such as Norton or Mace Utilities for possible
recovery options.

Hope this helps!
