How to Recover Deleted iCloud Backup

It is possible to recover deleted iCloud backup. If you delete iCloud backup accidentally, there are some solutions for you to take them back.

Can You Recover Deleted iCloud Backup?

The answer can be YES or NO, depending on the way you delete an iCloud backup. If you delete an entire iCloud backup, there is no way to recover it. But if you delete files and folders from iCloud, luckily, you still have the chance to get lost files back.

Whichever situation you belong to, remember one thing: any further use of your device could make the situation worse, so you'd better stop using your device right now. 

If you've known your present situation, let's see how to recover a deleted iCloud backup.

How to Recover Deleted iCloud Backup

It is possible to recover data that is deleted from iCloud Drive. There are three ways for you to get the job done.

Way 1. Recover Deleted Files from iCloud Drive

iCloud Drive lets you recover data that is deleted within 30 days. If the deletion happens within 30 days, you can easily recover the deleted data by following the below instruction.

Step 1. Enter icloud.com on a computer and log in with your iCloud account.

Step 2. Select "Settings."

Step 3. In the bottom-right corner of the screen, click "Recently Deleted."

Step 4. Click "Recover All" to recover all deleted files. Or you can also select individual files you want to recover.

Step 5. Click "Recover."

Way 2. Recover Files Deleted from Apps

Other than the above method, you can also recover your documents, contacts, and calendars that are deleted within 30 days with a new data restore feature of iCloud.com. But you need to ensure that you've previously turned on the backup option of Contacts, Calendars and Reminders, and Bookmarks on your iPhone. Let's see how it works.

Step 1. Open iCloud.com and sign in with your iCloud account.

Step 2. Select Settings.

Step 3. Scroll down to find Restore Files.

Step 4. Locate the file you wish to restore, and place a checkmark beside the file.

Step 5. Click Restore File(s).

Way 3. Recover data from iCloud with an iOS Data Recovery Tool
