Disk Drill for Windows is the best file recovery software in case your Recycle Bin has already been emptied (some moments ago or quite some time) and you don't have any backup files. This app offers versatile algorithms for deleted file recovery to help you with pretty much any data loss issue.

Disconnecting the storage where the data was lost the very moment you realized it happened, greatly increases your chances of deleted file recovery on Windows.
