I'm just wondering if a computer technician can find deleted history, cookies, temporary internet files, etc. and can anyone else find it? i know the police can...

also, how do they do it??? and why would they try doing it?? do they check your history everytime you need a repair?? does that mean they can get personal stuff, like passwords?

And who do you think locates those things when the police need to find it or what do they use? A magical fairy?
Yes, using the right tools data can still be recovered.

I'm sure a well-educated and experienced computer technician can. Data is only truly lost when overwritten.
We are always advised not to say or do anything we don't want published. Good rule.

Yes they can. Data is never lost or gone from a computer. An overwrite will distroy most of what it is written over and a complete re-format will overwrite almost everything and make it very difficult to recover.

If deleting your background from the browser itself does not exchange something, get carry of a software observed as CCleaner. it could delete your internet background documents, to boot as a team of alternative junk on your laptop.

Yes. Civilian techs can do it as well as the government. Even some not so tech-y techs can do it.
