When you delete files from an SD card, the file system marks the space occupied by the deleted files as available for new data. However, the actual data isnā€™t immediately erased from the storage medium. Instead, the pointers to the data blocks are removed, making the space appear free.

The deleted filesā€™ data remains physically present on the SD card until new data overwrites it. This is why data recovery tools can often retrieve deleted files as long as they havenā€™t been overwritten.

Before rushing to download and use any data recovery tool you come across, itā€™s important to stop using the SD card immediately. Continuing to use the storge device can result in data being overwritten, which is often irreversible and can significantly reduce the chances of a successful recovery.
