Recuva files recovered ones are not getting deleted. Laptop getting frozen
You will need to give much more details of what you are doing and what you are seeing before we could even start to help.
Starting with how the files had been ‘lost’ so that you want to recover them?
Fom what kind of drive were they lost?
How/why are you trying to delete the recovered files?
When is the laptop freezing, if it’s while Recuva is doing something then please drscribe what happens.
I wanted to recover one file when all the files got recovered which increased the storage and laptop is freezing. the files are corrupted it seems. Kindly help
It’s still not really enough detail, but from that I take it that you have done a recovery wrongly and instead of recovering just one file have tried to recover everything that has ever been deleted from that computer.
And even worse you have tried to save the recovered files to your internal System Drive (Your C: drive).
Firstly you should never recover files to the drive that they were deleted from, only recover to a different drive.
Secondly you should always check that the drive you are recovering to has enough space.
(Recuva will usually warn you if it doesn’t have enough space on the target drive, but it can’t always warn you).
From the little that you have given us I would say that you have overfilled your C: drive and there is not enough Free Space left on it for Windows to work properly. (You should usually leave at least 15%-20% of your System Drive free for Windows to use).
If you have overfilled your drive then you will need to delete the recovered files to get the free space back. You seem to be trying to delete them which is good).
You haven’t told us when your laptop is freezing, or what you are trying to do when it freezes.
However as you say that you cannot delete the recovered files I’m assuming that you can still get into Windows, can find the recovered files, but that it’s freezing when you try to delete them all at once?
It that is what’s happening then don’t try to delete them all at once.
Your computer needs free space on the drive to be able to delete files, and you have filled it up so it doesn’t have the space that it needs to delete a lot at once.
So start by deleting just a few, say 50 or 100 of the recovered files,
If those delete then empty your Recycle Bin and delete another 50 or 100, then empty the Bin again.
Then try deleteing more next time, say 200, then empty the Bin again.
As you gradually free up more space on the drive you should be able to delete more of them at a time until you have got rid of them all.
Come back and let us know if that works.
