Hi.

Is there a way to recover lost data even after it's deleted from the Reycle
Bin? --Assuming that nothing else has been written onto that part of the
hard drive in the meantime.

Thanks

Unfortunately there is no way of knowing if anything was written to that
part of the hard drive. The very next computer operation could have over
written the old file.
