I accidentally deleted a very important zip file through NetBeans

Question

i was working on my NetBeans and i accidentally deleted a zip folder that was on my desktop...a very important all through netbeans on the left side of netbeans you can see all

Answer 1

In Netbeans, there is also the option of History->Revert Deleted.

e.g. right click on the object in the tree owning the object that was deleted, and choose the above menu option.

History retention is set from the Tools->Options menu, under the Miscellaneous tab and the Versioning systems in the left-hand pane. I think the default retention time is 7 days.

Answer 2

Do not panic. Its very easy. Follow the steps:

1. Right click on the folder/directory that the files had been deleted.

2. Choose Local History – Restore Deleted

3. Done

Answer 3

In NetBeans select (highlight) the project that contained the ZIP file. Under Versioning, select Local History -> Revert Deleted. See if your ZIP file comes back. If not, you're probably out of luck.

Version control and backups are your friends.

Answer 4

Eclipse and Idea both have a mechanism to restore local history, this includes deleted files. Netbeans seems to have similar. Hope this helps.

You possibly can recover the deleted file by using the Refactor->Undo[Safely Delete] option.

Answer 5

nope. it wiped it clean. you can install some file recovery software and get it back in no time (just google "file recovery" and you'll get a million tools)
