When forensic analysis of the Windows operating system and the search for the existence of suspected files, applications, or artifacts of the operating system, the process of restoring deleted data is very often hard drives (SSD) SATA or NVMe interfaces in personal computers and taking into account properties such as wear leveling and garbage collection solid state hard drives, it is significantly difficult to recover deleted data as well as proving the start and presence of suspected files on the computers of the attacker or victim.
