Why can files deleted by the Recycle Bin be recovered? Simply put, when the Windows operating system deletes a file, it does not immediately clear the disk space taken up by the file. When a file is deleted, disk space is freed because the operating system marks it as free to allow new files to be written. Therefore, the data can be successfully recovered before the file is overwritten.
