Understanding File Recovery on Linux Linux handles file deletion differently than Windows. When you delete a file on a Linux Ext4 file system, it removes the directory entry and makes the space available for new data. The actual file contents remain on the disk until overwritten by something new. This leaves a window where file recovery is possible. However, recovering deleted files on Linux has unique challenges: The Ext4 file system does not keep track of old file records. There is no master file table like in Windows. Linux lacks a Recycle Bin to store recently deleted files. Once removed, they are marked for overwrite. Root user privileges give full access to alter system files leading to increased risk of accidental deletion. Open source Linux file recovery tools are limited compared to commercial options. This is why data recovery specialists recommend using read-only tools like Diskinternals to prevent damaging the file system further when salvaging lost data.
