What to Do to Recover the Lost Word Document on Mac

I do believe many computer users like you and I sometimes accidentally deleted the important Word document during the process when we were working on the computer. Or we may lose the Word document when the computer OS crashed or the Word document corrupted. Even worse we just emptied the recycle bin! These make us mad ’cause some of the deleted Word documents are important to us!

After the Word document lost many of us thought that it is impossible to get the files back so the thing only we can do is to build another Word document to do our jobs. Is that true? Is it really the deleted or lost Word document cannot be got back? This article is going to show the answer.

Before Recovery-What We Need to Learn

When you see the subtitle above you will know that the deleted Word document or lost files can be recovered. What we need to do is to learn why the lost file can be got back first.

When you save a file on a computer hard drive, the computer operating system will find the enough space for this file on the FAT which is in charge of recording all space usage and then write the content of this file on the corresponding partition on the hard drive and mark the space has been occupied by this file. When you remove a file, the computer operating system will not process on the partition which is occupied by the deleted file but only point out the space of the deleted file can be used by other new file.

When you deleted a file, it is possible for you to restore it. Nonetheless, if you put a new file or build a new file on the hard drive, the space of the deleted file will be taken by the new file. This will make the chances of file recovery become less than normal. So, here we bring you tips: When you found that you deleted the files you’d better not do any operation to the drive where your files were deleted from because data overwritten happen and no ways to get the lost files back.
