I accidentally deleted some documents on my laptop yesterday, now I can't download and open anything, can I remove the hard drive and connect it to the PC as an external hard drive and then delete it via Recuva? They were old pictures.
Recuva is not for deletion, but for restoration.
Yes, you can connect the plate to another computer using an adapter. Would you like that:

recommend instead of Recuva.
With Recuva, you shouldn't delete it, but restore it. And it is possible
The question is incomprehensible. Why do you want to use a data recovery tool to delete more data?
Yes, unless it is an SSD.
Said to restore
This works with an HDD as well as with an SSD, regardless of whether SATA, .M2, MSATA or MVMe.
Ok I did not know. "However, the chances of recovering deleted files on an SSD using Recuva are rather slim."
You only need the appropriate adapter.
With Recuva you can restore deleted files. This works best if nothing has been written afterwards.
Deleting old pictures can't mean that you can no longer download or open anything on the PC. So there's clearly another problem here.
