How can we delete file again

The code that you just typed in Run simply opens Hosts and does nothing. But if you manually opened it and deleted the contents and saved it then I am afraid that those contents are lost forever. However there is no need to worry as it is not that important file. You can get it again by making it using method on.

However there is something that you can try. Each time when you are not able to save a file of notepad or a text, it goes to clipboard in the windows.

This clipboard has all the contents of the windows since the start of the windows but it looses all the contents if you restarted your pc or shut it down or a power loss has occurred.

So your best shot is to Windows System32 folder and open the clipbrd.exe. See if it has any contents that you are looking for.
