When files are deleted, their space is marked as "free," but the actual data remains recoverable until it's overwritten. To preserve your chances of recovery, avoid copying new files to the drive and disconnect it if you're not ready to begin recovery right away. Next, you'll need to use data recovery software to retrieve your deleted files. There are several reliable options available. Stellar Data Recovery is a great choice for both Mac and Windows users, offering support for external drives, SSDs, and SD cards, with a simple interface and the ability to preview files before recovery. To recover files using Stellar Data Recovery, simply download and install the software on a different drive (not the one you’re recovering). Connect your external drive, launch the tool, and select the appropriate drive for scanning. If the file isn't found during the initial scan, opt for a Deep Scan. Once the scan is complete, preview the files and recover the ones you need to a different, safe location. Finally, remember not to install the recovery software on the same drive you're trying to recover from, as this can overwrite the data. If your external drive is physically damaged or not being recognized by your system, you may need to consult professional data recovery services.</blockquote>
