Recovery of a file using Google Drive can vary based on when and how the file was deleted. Firstly, one needs to see whether the file is still available on Google Drive's Trash to restore the file. Additionally, one can check sync folders, shared drives, previous copies, and even available backups. In cases where the file has been permanently deleted from Google Drive with no cloud copy existing anymore, the traditional ways of recovery will be less likely. Nonetheless, when a synchronized copy of the file has existed on one's computer or any other device capable of synchronization, some recovery tools can help locate the data that was deleted.
