USB flash drives are a great and comfortable way to transfer and store information. Sadly, too many Mac users still face a problem of accidentally deleting important data or accidentally formatting the USB drive. But what actually happens when files stored on your thumb drive are lost or deleted by mistake and how to get them back? I will show you 3 best ways to get your data back.
TIP: As soon as you realize that data loss has occurred, you should stop using the USB drive.
Way 1. Check the Trash Can
Way 2. Check the Other Trash Cans
Whenever you use an external drive, your Mac creates a bunch of hidden folders starting with a period to help the drive work better with macOS. One of these hidden folders is “.Trashes”
- Enable Hidden Files in macOS Sierra, Mojave, Catalina, Big Sur
If you’re using macOS Sierra or later, you can view hidden files in Finder by simply using the SHIFT+CMD+. hotkey (that’s the period key).
- If You’re Using an Older OS X Version
You can enable hidden files in Finder by running the following commands in Terminal. Press Command+Space and type “Terminal” to bring it up. At the prompt, paste these two lines in there one at a time, hitting Enter after each line:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
killall Finder
After running these commands, you should be able to see the “.Trashes” folder.
Way 3. Use a Data Recovery Software
Step 1. Download and Install Disk Drill for Mac
Step 2. Run Disk Drill and Select the USB Drive You Want to Scan
Step 3. Select Scanning Mode and Start Scanning your USB Drive
Step 4. Preview Found Files
Step 5. Restore all lost files from a USB Flash Drive
