DICKtator: Stupid questions mostly go ignored or downvoted on Quora. Sarcasm aplenty on Quora and when I turn to Nairaland I cannot but see it is now a creche for kids. There are experts in every topic or field on the Quora so there is a high chance or probability your questions will be answered in a mature and timely fashion. Can’t say the same for your hasty ‘opinion’ though. Like they say “ opinions are like..... 1 Like |

xcelentattitude: It remains within the phone. I think it either stays on a section of the hard drive or mother board. Copied from Quora. Deleting a file doesn’t means to destroying the existence of the file. Whenever you press the delete button, the file becomes inaccessible. There is a storage master table , which keeps track of all the available spaces and used storage spaces. Whenever a delete action is performed, the space is set as free to reuse. Unless a newer file requests for storage space, the file remains in its old place, but is not accessible to the end user. Once a newer file is available, the data is replaced with the new file, and old file is deleted permanently. |

xcelentattitude: They don't go any where, they are still in the phone and can be recovered by anyone who knows what they are doing. When you hit the delete key, all the phone is doing is to mark that item as 'rewrite eligible'. This makes that portion of storage for write operation should your storage become full. Even your storage eventually become full and the 'rewrite eligible' storage area are reclaimed and rewritten over, one can still undelete the content. 2 Likes |

Nigerdeltaent: Cache is a different concept than virtual memory(aka vMemory) and they are not the same as reserve or addressable memory and deleted items does not go into any of these. Cache: Is a Runtime memory that supplements your physical memory. It is a portion of memory that contains currently running apps, video program etc. Virtual Memory: Is the virtual equivalent of your physical memory installed on your device. It's mostly used and applicable when using virtual machines(aka VM), VPC (virtual private cloud), openstack, etc and you have concepts like vMemory, vCPU, vDisk, vRAM, vNIC, etc. Reserved Memory: Are reserved system executable space running kernel applications and not accessible to your apps, etc and usually are locked and protected. Unaddressable Storage: The reason you don't see e.g. a full 4g space when you install a 4g storage is because, the rest of the space is taken up by partition table, format over head, hidden shadow files, recovery partitions, etc. what you see is the addressable storage space. Deleted Files: These files are stored in the addressable storage space, but flagged as 're write eligible' then hidden. |

All deleted files go to backup section of the same memory. This backup section is known as Stack. It is a hidden storage section for only deleted files. However, deleted files could be recovered with File Recovery Softwares. Simple |

If I can attempt to explain, nothing really gets deleted and nothing really leaves . What you see in your computer and phone are a bunch of codes and pixels running and doing what you tell it to do with every command .. if you have about 1 million songs on your of and you delete them , I think it doesn't leave , it just breaks the code and convert those songs to free space , hence you think the file deleted , . Now if you copy movies over those free space , it simply converts the space to movies . It just keeps on happening like that .. if things actually really deleted. |

I don't really think things are actually deleted o, they are stored in d ram. That's y at a long run some fones tend to get slow(dats if they have little ram) even when you've deleted a lot of stuff |
