It can be really painful when you pay attention to curating photos on your PC, and then one day, you realize they are gone. Not to mention, PNG images are often the original pictures created (after the raw files), which means the chances of having a backup file are also negligible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you can relate to what you just read or have recently faced data loss where all your PNG files are lost, you may be looking for a way to recover these files. Your search for the best way to recover deleted\/lost PNG images has finally reached its course.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this post, let\u2019s take a look at some effective ways that can help you recover lost PNG pictures on a Windows PC. Ensure you read this article until the end, as we might have an interesting tip for you by the end!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without any further ado, let\u2019s begin!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">What is a PNG File?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before we start with how to recover lost PNG files, some of you may wonder what exactly PNG files are. Many users only think about them as usual pictures. However, that\u2019s not the case; PNG files are lossless images with zero quality loss. You can even call them raster image files. These files are heavy and take up enough storage space. Due to this, sometimes, to make room for other files, users delete PNG files to regret later.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.systweak.com\/blogs\/tips-to-prevent-photos-loss-and-recover-them\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tips to Prevent Photos Loss and Recover Them<\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">What Causes PNG Loss on a PC?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main reasons that may make you lose PNG images on your PC are:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>1. Damaged Hard Drive<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have been using an old PC, the hard drive might not be as good as it was when you started using it, or there might be bad actors due to which you might lose data, including PNG files and other data.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>2. Accidentally Deleting Files<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This one is a common human error, and most users make it when they are in a hurry to manage storage and copy new data. In that hurriedness, they often end up unintentionally deleting PNG files. It can happen to anyone.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>3. Virus and Bugs in OS<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Virus and malicious infections on a PC are also a reason why one may lose PNG files saved on it. Connecting multiple mass storage devices without scanning or using the internet without a VPN may serve as an invitation to unwanted programs that often turn into a bug that leads to data loss.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>4. Sudden Power Cut <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While copying data or using the PC, if the power is lost suddenly, there is a huge probability of data loss. In such situations, one has no other option than to wait for the power to be restored. It happens due to the dynamic nature of memory used to render files.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other than these, if the drive is formatted without a backup, or there are hardware issues such as water spillage, overheating, etc., you may experience data loss, which includes losing PNG images on Windows PC.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">How to Recover Lost PNG Image Files on Windows?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that you have identified what you are looking for and what might have caused the loss let\u2019s jump to the methods you can implement to recover these files.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Method 1 &#8211; Restoring Deleted PNG Files From Recycle Bin<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first and basic thing to do in case you can not find the PNG file is to check the Recycle Bin. Wondering why so? By default, the files are moved to Recycle Bin when you press the Delete key. To <a href=\"https:\/\/www.systweak.com\/blogs\/how-to-recover-recently-deleted-photos-from-recycle-bin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">restore a file from Recycle Bin<\/a>, go to Recycle Bin and look for the files.

Or select the file and click Restore from the top bar in the Window. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5177 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/bg.systweak.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/recycle-bin.jpg\" alt=\"recycle bin\" width=\"77\" height=\"74\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"color-box\">\n<div class=\"shadow\">\n<div class=\"info-tab note-icon\" style=\"background:#47ADE0\"><i><\/i><\/div>\n<div class=\"note-box\" style=\"background:#d5e9f6\">\n<p> <strong> Note : <\/strong>You can find Recycle Bin on the Desktop or in the side panel of Windows File Explorer. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Method 2 &#8211; Quickly UNDO the Action<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another quick tip for recovering unintentionally deleted files is to undo the action. It is easy to do. You have two ways\u00a0 &#8211;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Way 1 &#8211; Once you realize you have made a mistake, press the Ctrl+Z combination on your keyboard while staying in the same folder.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Way 2 &#8211; Right click in the folder, and you may see an UNDO option in the quick access menu, click on it to see if it recovers the file. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17416 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/bg.systweak.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/UNDO-option.png\" alt=\"UNDO option\" width=\"313\" height=\"464\" srcset=\"http:\/\/143.244.153.71\/systweakblogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/UNDO-option.png 313w, http:\/\/143.244.153.71\/systweakblogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/UNDO-option-202x300.png 202w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 313px) 100vw, 313px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep in mind that it is the immediate thing to do.
