Definition

Deleted data recovery attempts to restore files after deletion by finding remnants in unallocated space, caches, or backups — success depends on overwrites and encryption.

Real-World Example

Recovering a “deleted” photo from unallocated space on an unencrypted SD card is classic deleted-data recovery.
