Question Restored files

[ditrate]

If I restore any files from recycle bin, would they be corrupted?

They shouldn't be, unless were corrupted before deletion.

I suppose one could experience a hardware related error that could impact the integrity of files (even those in the Recycle Bin).

I don't think I have ever had a Recycle Bin restored file corrupted using any version Windows, ever.

"Deleting" and restoring files is basically the same as moving a file around folders, because Recycle Bin is a special system folder.

So you have the same chance of corruption as doing any other file operation.
