Do delete files from SD card go to recycle bin? Absolutely No! There's no recycle bin on your SD card. Once you delete files on the SD card, your PC may remind you that the selected files will be deleted permanently. So, you won't find them in your Recycle Bin.
If we proceed to the technical level, the SD card deleted files are still stored in it. Still, the initial letter of the file is changed to a special symbol. Its location is marked as available. Once a new file is stored at the original file location, then the original deleted files are completely overwritten and cleared. Until then, the files will continue to remain on the SD card.
Is it possible to recover deleted files from the SD card? The answer is yes; deleted files from your SD card can be recovered as their storage space is not overwritten with new data. It's suggested that you recover deleted files from SD cards using data recovery software, such as EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard.
