Since macOS Mojave recommends to enable automatically Empty Trash in MacOS after 30 days in Optimse Mac Storage. Many mac users have turned on "Remove items from the Trash after 30 days". When this feature is enabled, all items in the Trash will be automatically deleted after 30 days. In this case, some Mac users report deleting the important files after emptying the trash. Because Apple uses the new Apple File system in macOS Mojave, many data recovery software can no longer support the new file system. Is there any solution or software can recover the trash files after emptying the trash on macOS Mojave? This article will show you the answer.
Before start we need to do:
Stop using your Mac computer immediately to avoid deleting the original data. Because macOS only marks the space used by deleted files on the disk to free up the storage space for the data, the original data is still on disk. Original data may be overwritten after new data is created or loaded on mac data.

The trash files comes from the boot disk to avoid boot disk data being overwritten, connect a USB device or external disk to the computer, and then download Fireebok Data Recovery to the USB device.
