2 years ago I deleted some photos from my Acer laptop. The police have been taking my laptop for a few days and looking for it. The laptop has been coded. My question is: can the police unlock the laptop? And if so, can you recover the deleted photo?
I hope so, therefore you have obviously committed a crime and they are looking for the photo ;-)
So I think: YES you will be able to find it and recover it with software.
You can get the images back from any hard drive. It's a question of price and rigor.
Can the police unlock the laptop?
that's what the specialists have for that
the photos are not deleted, they could still be on them.
ergo 2 x YES
No. It's a question of technology. And if the sectors on which the images were located have already been overwritten several times with other files due to the continued use of the device, then you can no longer recover the fragments into a complete file.
I see you only have official information.
Since you deleted pictures 2 years ago, the corresponding tracks on the hard drive have probably been overwritten several times since then (if the computer was used regularly). A recovery is therefore rather unlikely.
No. I have technical information. If you throw your pants into a fire, depending on the degree of burns, you will know that they were pants, but at 1200 degrees in a blast furnace you will never be able to make these pants from the leftover ashes.
If sectors with deleted files are overwritten several times and again and again, after a certain number of times the information that the computer needs to be able to display a clear picture is simply missing. At best, you will find out that it was an image file. What the picture originally showed can no longer be determined.
I deleted the photos two and a half years ago. From that time until now, I've downloaded and deleted music and movies almost every week. Do you mean that the hard drive has already been overwritten? Lg

I assume so, yes.
