I deleted windows 10 VM from my MacBook two days ago. It was pretty large in size, around 50 Gigs, and I deleted to free up some storage. Before deleting, I copied all of my data, and I forgot to copy some important data, which was stored in "Sticky Notes". :( It was in my trash for about 4 days, and I emptied trash two days ago. From last two days, I have been trying different tools, but no luck so far. I have **tried**: - RecoverIt - Aiseesoft Mac Data Recovery - iSkysoft Data Recovery - DiskDrill - Easeus Data Recovery - Stellar Data Recovery I tried free / basic / trial versions of those software's. As most of them allows to view files in free version. RecoverIt showed the VM files in first run, but when I purchased the software, it did not show those files. :( **Q.** Is there any possibility to recover in this case? **Additional info:** - VM was stored on second drive of SSD (partition) - Drive has password encryption enabled - It's 1.5 TB in size (entire drive scanning is too slow, DiskDrill took around 9 hours to scan the drive)
