How to access a remote page in contact. View deleted page

When deleting a VKontakte profile, many hope that the information will no longer be present on the network. But everything that ends up on the Internet stays there. The main thing is to find a way to view the deleted VKontakte page.

View page cache

Search engines constantly save copies of visited sites. And if the VKontakte account was recently erased, then there is a chance that the system did not visit it and did not save recent changes.

You can view your profile as follows:

Using Google Search

If the copy has already been changed in Yandex and does not open in the form before the changes, you can try searching for the same information in another search engine. There is a possibility that another search engine did not have time to make changes.

To find a deleted page using another search engine you need to:


The saved copy can be viewed if the original was deleted not so long ago. If the user deleted the profile, for example, a year ago, then viewing it in this way is not possible.

Online service Web archive

Changes occur on the Internet every day. Pages are deleted and new ones are created. And there are services that register and save such changes. The web archive does this, and with its help you can see deleted VKontakte pages. To do this you need to use the instructions:


View in browser cache

You can also view a social network profile that has been deleted through your browser cache. It saves copies of all the sites the user has visited to reduce loading times. If the page was visited before deletion and the cache was not cleared after that, you can view it. Each browser has its own way to get into the cache:

  • Chromium: type and go chrome://cache;
  • Opera: type and go to opera://cache;
  • Mozila: Type in the search bar and go to about:cache.

The browser will redirect to the page with the cache, which is displayed as links. There you can find the desired link using a search and see what the VKontakte page looked like before.

Service CachedView.com

This service is a universal search engine in Google's cache. To use it you need:



When you click on green button the site redirects to the user’s page in a new tab. The page is presented in the form in which the search engine bot recorded it during the last visit.

When you click on orange button the site redirects the user to display the result of the Web Archive online service.

How to view deleted VKontakte photos

Erased VKontakte photos can be seen in the same ways as a page. But there are other methods.

For example, if when you click on a VKontakte photo, a window pops up with information that the photo has been deleted, then you can copy it. You need to right-click on the thumbnail and save. The disadvantage of this method is that the photo will be of poor resolution.

There is a way to view a full photo that has been deleted with good resolution. To do this you need:

  1. Click on the thumbnail deleted photo so that messages appear indicating that it is missing.
  2. Let's go to Developer Tool browser, a window with the page code will appear.
  3. In the code it is necessary find link to the original photo. It is underlined with a solid line and when you hover over it, a thumbnail will be shown.
  4. Necessary copy this element and paste the link into the address bar. The result will be the required photo in the format in which it was uploaded to VKontakte.

Viewing a deleted VKontakte photo is possible and quite simple. You don’t need a lot of knowledge or special skills, all you need is a computer with Internet access.

On the main page of the archive, there is a block “Wayback Machine”. Here you need to enter the address of the remote page and press Enter.

Pay attention to the interface. There is a calendar at the top of the screen. It displays the available copies of the page. If there are several, you can view each of them. Let's try to zoom out to 2012 and see what was on my page at that time. We select the desired date on the calendar and get this result.

If the deleted page is not in the archive, you will receive a message like this.

Viewing a copy of your profile in search engines

Yandex and Google add information about all found pages on the Internet to their database. This also applies to VK accounts. The copy version changes with each database update (of course, if there are changes). This process takes several days.

If the user is very recent, there is a chance that search engines still have a saved copy of it. And we can review it.

Let's see what it looks like in Yandex.

To make the operating principle more clear, consider a copy that is guaranteed to exist.

We go to Yandex and type the address of your account in the search.

The same principle applies to Google.

Now let's try to view the saved copy. To do this, expand the additional menu (the triangle-shaped button is located next to the address). Click here "Saved Copy".

Now try the same steps for the remote page you want to see.

View Browser Cache

Every time you open a website page, your browser saves a copy of it to its history. This is done so that when you open it again, you do not have to download it again via the Internet, but instantly provide you with a ready-made copy. This significantly increases the speed of work.

If you recently visited the user's page, there is a chance that it is in the browser cache and you can view it.

Let's do this using Mozilla Firefox as an example.

Enable offline mode. To do this, open the menu, then “Development”, and then check the box "Work autonomously".

Now in the address bar of your browser, you need to indicate the URL of the desired page and press “Enter”. If a copy exists, it will be loaded. If not, you will see an error message.

I reviewed all three methods in video format.

Conclusion

There is a possibility that none of the described methods will produce results, and you will not be able to see information from the deleted page. In this case, all that remains is to hope that the user decides to restore his profile.

It may happen that the user’s page, which you calmly visited a couple of days ago, turns out to be deleted. Question: is it possible to somehow view this page and if so, how to do it?

You can view the deleted page, but not in all cases, so we will not give a guarantee. There are two ways to see it.

Internet Archive

There is a so-called Internet archive - this is a site where pages of many sites are saved, including those that continue to work and those that have not existed for a long time. It is quite possible that the page of the user you need was loaded into this archive.

Go to archive.org. A search form appears. Enter the page address and press the Enter key. As an example, we will use Pavel Durov's page.

If the page is in the archive, you will know about it: the system will show all saved versions of the page as of a particular date. Simply click on the desired date, for example, the latest one available in the archive, and look at the page. The dates are highlighted in blue in the screenshot.

Just remember that even if the page is in the archive, but it is only available to VK users for viewing, you will see the following:

Search engine cache

You can try viewing the page through the search engine cache. We recommend using Yandex or Google.

Open the search engine and enter the address of the user’s page, then click “Find”.

As you can see, the page has been found. You need to click on the button highlighted by the arrow, and then click on the “Saved copy” link.

The saved page opens in the search engine cache.

You will need

  • - Internet access;
  • - Total Commander or other file manager;
  • - Handy Recovery file recovery program.

Instructions

Use the system restore feature. This is the most accessible, although not particularly convenient, method. Enter the "Start" menu, find the "Programs" tab, and in it - the "Accessories" line. Select the System Restore option. In some versions of Windows, this tab is located in the Utilities section.

After choosing system recovery, carefully read the help that will appear as soon as you click the appropriate link. The fact is that when using this function, changes that occurred to your computer after the checkpoint are erased. The files created during this time will not go anywhere, but program settings may change. The certificate states what you will gain or lose if you take advantage of the opportunity offered.

Before restoring your system, be sure to save changes to the files you were just working on and close all applications. After that, click the “Continue” button and recover the deleted log.

If you only want to view the history, but do not need to “roll back” the entire system to the last checkpoint, use one of the deleted items viewer programs. There are many such programs, one of the most common is Handy Recovery. It is paid, but you can use it freely for a certain time. It is installed on the computer in the usual way. Close your browser, launch the program and scan the disk. This program has several analogues with free licenses.

The Handy Recovery program interface consists of two windows. The right one provides the browsing function, and on the left you will see deleted files, among which is your log file. It must be isolated and then restored. You will see the corresponding button at the top of the interface.

Find the folder on your disk dedicated to your browsing history. It is usually located on drive C, in the Program Files directory. Move the files you just recovered into it. Open your browser and view your browsing history.

A page on the social network VKontakte can tell a lot about a person, especially if he actively maintains it. On it you can find out a list of his hobbies, date of birth, look at photographs, records of interest from various groups, and much more. But if the user decides to delete his VKontakte page, all this information is hidden. A message appears on his page that this user has deleted his account, and it is no longer possible to view the information on it. But there are several ways to view a deleted VKontakte page, which we will discuss in this article.

Table of contents: Please note: The tips below are relevant not only when the page is deleted at the will of the user. They also allow you to view information on pages that have been blocked by VKontakte administrators for one reason or another.

Searching for a deleted VKontakte page in the search engine cache

Search engines store their database with information about all sites, including making backup copies of them. Anyone can use them, which allows, among other things, to view information about the page of a remote user on VKontakte.

Important: This method only works if the user has recently deleted his profile from VKontakte. If the page has been deleted for a long time, most likely a search robot visited it again and updated the saved copy.

In the following way, you can view information about a deleted VKontakte page using a search engine Google:


In the Yandex search engine, opening saved copies of VKontakte pages occurs in approximately the same way.

Please note: The social network VKontakte allows users to configure their privacy. In your personal account settings, you can configure the visibility of the page on the network. If this setting specifies that the page is visible to everyone except search sites, then it will not be possible to find saved copies of the page in Google and Yandex, since the search robot is prohibited from crawling such a page.

Viewing a deleted VKontakte page in the web archive

On the Internet, every day hundreds of sites change, are deleted, new ones appear in their place, and other similar manipulations occur. There are several services that monitor these actions, saving copies of sites and individual pages. Using such a service, you can view information that was posted on a remote VKontakte page. This is done as follows:


It is worth noting that the webarchive service does not work well with saving information about VKontakte user pages, and if the account was registered recently, there is a high probability that information about it will not be found in the service database.

Viewing a deleted VKontakte page in the browser cache

Important: This method can only be used by those users who want to see the page of a person they previously visited, but who later deleted it.

The method is based on the fact that browsers store copies of sites, which is necessary for them to load faster when necessary. If you visited a user's page some time ago, after which he deleted it, you have the opportunity to view its saved copy in the browser. This can be done in almost any browser; let’s look at Opera as an example.:

These are all ways to view information that was previously located on a deleted VKontakte page.
