清空回收站後，可以不使用軟體來恢復已刪除的檔案嗎？

前面提到，除非您在刪除檔案之前進行了備份，否則一旦回收站被清空，Windows將不會提供任何方法來還原已刪除的檔案。這是事實。因此，在這種情況下，資料復原軟體是您最好也是唯一的選擇。

說到備份，您在刪除檔案之前可能沒有手動將檔案複製到 USB 隨身碟或任何外部磁碟機進行備份。然而，Windows 10 隨附了一些自動備份功能，例如檔案記錄、還原點、備份和還原 (Windows 7)，這些功能可能在您不知情的情況下備份了您的檔案。在某些情況下，例如Windows自動更新，系統會自動建立系統還原點。這允許您將系統恢復到檔案未被刪除的先前狀態。此外，您可能已啟用文件歷史記錄來備份過去某個時刻的文件。所以，基於這些可能性，你可以嘗試在清空回收站後不使用軟體來恢復已刪除的檔案。
