If you have deleted any important file you can recover it in Recycle bin. But if you have deleted permanently (Shift+Del) or made empty your recycle bin then restoring file is difficult task.

By default the files are not deleted from the hard disk, it is remained in the hard disk and it is over written when you create a new file. To recover the deleted files which is present in hard disk, we found a cool free software Filewing. Which helps to recover the files from hard disk.

We have tested this software by deleting a text file and scanned the drive using Filewing, it recovered the file finally.

Everyday we use MyDocuments to store documents, pictures, downloaded files and videos. But by default Windows operating system takes the operating system drive (C:) to store all kind of document files, downloaded files, pictures etc.

If you have lot of documents and files in MyDocuments folder, you may face OS and application to be working slower due to lot of files in operating system drive (C:). If you have more space in any other drive let us assume (D:) drive. You can map MyDocuments folder to any drive(D:) or network drive easily by the following steps.

1. Right click on the MyDocuments folder.

2. Look for properties in the menu and select properties.

3. select Location tab in the Documents Properties window as shown below picture.

4. Click on Move button and select your destination path for instance (D:\MyDocuments) and click apply button.

5. Now all the document files will be stored under (D:\MyDocuments).

We hope the above tip is useful for you.
