Recovering the lost data which is accidentally deleted from our computers has always been a serious headache. But there are tools available which can help us to get our lost data back.We might often find people complaining that these tools doesn’t work.It is because they don’t follow some simple rules before trying to recover data. Let me tell you these simple rules and please make sure you follow them before going for a data recovery!
