Many users are eager to know if it is possible to retrieve the deleted YouTube video.
Can the deleted YouTube Video be retrieved?
The answer to this question is no as YouTube doesn't keep deleted videos saved. Once a video is deleted, it's permanently removed from the platform. However, even after the video is gone, some data related to it such as view counts or comments, can still be retained.
YouTube itself does not support retrieving deleted videos as there is no deleted videos section available on the platform. But the users can retrieve the deleted YouTube video if the deleted videos are saved to the computer backup. This is possible, if the users have regular backups of their computer. If the user is the owner of the lost YouTube video, its original source file would be still present in the owner’s computer and by finding them the problem can get solved.
