How to Recover Files Deleted from the Downloads Folder
On this page (3)
The Downloads folder fills up quickly, and cleaning it is easy to overdo. Here is how to get a deleted download back.
1. Check the trash of your file manager
- Files by Google: Menu → Trash (30 days).
- Samsung My Files: Menu → Recycle bin.
2. Download it again
Open your browser's download history (Chrome: Menu → Downloads). If the link still works, tap it to download the file again. E-mail attachments and chat files can be downloaded again from the message.
3. Scan with DS Recovery PRO
- Open DS Recovery PRO → Document recovery (for PDF, Office files) or the scan for photos, videos or audio.
- Find the file by name or date and tap Restore.
Tip: turn on the DS Recovery PRO recycle bin, so the next deleted download can be restored instantly.
