How to return photos to VK that you hid

Browsing history or browser cache is a chance!

If you recently looked at this photo in full size, then it could remain in your browsing history or in the cache (temporary files) of your browser - the program with which you view websites. This is one of the real chances. And if you opened the photo using the “Open original” button, then maybe you can even find a link to the VK website where this photo is still stored.

How to find a deleted photo in your browser history

Typically, the browsing history in the browser can be viewed using the Ctrl-H key combination or called up through the menu. It is especially useful to search there if you have recently opened a photo using the “Open original” link.

How to find a deleted photo in temporary files

You will need a program to view the cache. There are different programs for different browsers, download and run the one that is designed specifically for yours (Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer). If you're not very good with computers, it's time to stop touching anything and call a boy who is good at it to continue from there.

A page with programs for viewing the cache of various browsers: Web Browser Tools. Download the program for the browser used on this computer. Run it and look in the cache for image files (.jpg) of a sufficiently large size - among them may be the same deleted photo.

Recovering photos from browser cache

How to restore a VKontakte page if there is no photo on it
If you recently viewed this photo in full size, then it could remain in the browser cache - the program with which you view sites. In other words, in her temporary files. This is one of the real chances, you will need a program to view the cache.

Search criteria - the site address must contain “vk.com”. And the link must be to a file with a jpg or png extension. We are looking for a graphic file on the Contact website.

It is impossible to restore a deleted album. They are deleted once and for all. Think before you delete the entire album, it might just be easier to hide it. And it is also impossible to restore photos with likes. Therefore, before you take and delete any photo, think.

If you enter the query “site: Vkontakte “photos from the DELETED page” into the Google search box, about 500 pages are displayed in the search results. Naturally, they do not open via a direct link. But if you simply click on a copy of the page, then users’ photos are available for viewing, reports Business Portal.

This gap in the work of VKontakte was discovered by specialists from Security Lab, an Internet portal about information security. Experts describe several simple techniques for finding deleted photos. Using information tagged “image source” found on Google, you can calculate the page id of a VKontakte user. In them, among the existing photographs, there are no those that Google produces, although it is obvious that the person is depicted as the same person.

Security Lab:

How long search engines store information is a matter of their trade secret. Information found on the Internet is stored on equipment owned by search engines; the period depends on the equipment settings. The entire volume of data produced by search engines is approximately 20% of what is stored on servers.

According to the expert, the data security monitoring service is not in demand in Russia. This is one of the reasons for the leaks of personal information that were observed last week.

Yandex does not find deleted photos. It is known that Facebook and Google generally do not delete data ever posted by users and report this in their privacy policies.

The saga of a deleted VK photo or a small hack by the hands of a person far from this matter

How to delete all VKontakte photos or an album at once?

Lumber room *

I admit, I am an ordinary user, far from any type of activity related to cracking or, more simply put, hacking. I’m sitting on VKontakte, it’s far from early, and suddenly a friend posts photos from a Women’s Day celebration (by the way, happy March 8th to all the fair sex!) Deciding to look at them, I noticed that there was no third photo, but in the end I got this is the little window.

Naturally, I still wanted to take a look at what my friend was hiding, and I was faced with 3 ways to solve this problem. I'll tell you in more detail about each of them.

Small preview

As a result, we get this picture:

Let's note the obvious disadvantage of this method - the low resolution of the picture (mine is 320x240). What if there is some text on it? Not such a good deal anymore, is it?

Full photography (long method)

The question arises, where are the developers hiding this ill-fated picture? I admit that Pavel Durov decided to hide it very far into the depths of tables and blocks, so much so that I had to make a large number of clicks... Here is the exact address:

Now look at the line Everything that is in quotes after the word src is the address of our full-fledged image:

Yes, ladies, we found the deleted photo and made sure of VKontakte’s policy on storing photos on the server (upload any data after that). Agree that the path to the picture is quite long, because the user can delete more than one photo.

Today we will talk about how to get back hidden photos on VKontakte. For a long time now, such a function as a feed has appeared on the expanses of this social network. Most often, four images appear in it, which you placed as the final ones on your profile. VKontakte designers claim that they added the feed because it makes the page more interesting. And with it it is much more convenient to view not only the latest photos, but also those that you saved earlier. But sometimes the user accidentally excludes adding an image. It is in this situation that the question arises of how to return hidden VKontakte photos.

How to return photos to VK that you have hidden

All VK accounts have a section with photographs. It is located above the personal page feed. It contains four photo cards that were added last. If you upload a new photo to your profile, it will replace one of those that is already displayed in the block.

The user can, at his discretion, leave only those four pictures that he likes. To do this, you should remove unwanted photos from the block. They will remain in the list of photos, but you won’t be able to open them from the section above the feed. This is very convenient and you can customize the appearance of your profile, leaving the most beautiful pictures visible. But here’s the question: “How to return photos to VK that you hid?”

Recovery methods

9 photo editors that will make your skin look perfect in photos

Despite the fact that the deleted photo is still somewhere out there, on one of the VKontakte servers, it is almost impossible to find it. To open this file, you need to know the exact link to it (many, many letters, numbers and at the end “.jpg”). Even if we knew part of this link, selecting the remaining options would take a very long time (longer than you might imagine).

Therefore, you need to try to take advantage of other, more realistic chances. The main thing is not to waste time.

If I deleted a photo from the wall, how can I restore it?

This is the easiest way. When you delete a post from the wall, the photos attached to it remain in a special album - “Photos on the Wall”. Go to your photos, look at the list of all albums, and you will find it.

If you haven’t visited the VKontakte page for a long time

In some cases, if you registered on VKontakte a long time ago, you may forget your login. Thus, try to remember your old phone number. Perhaps your friends will help you with this, or you have this number written down somewhere. Even if you cannot remember it, VKontakte support can send it by email. But in any case, to restore the page, you need either a phone number or an email address.

The most difficult situation is if the phone number is lost, or it is the number of another person, but you cannot log into VKontakte because you do not remember the password. One of the options in this situation is to try to call this number, explaining the situation, and hope that this person will help you. Perhaps, as a last resort, you should offer him a reward for taking the time to help unpin his number from your page so that you can attach your new phone number. In this case, an SMS with a code will be sent to his phone, and he will have to dictate this code to you.
If your phone number has been lost, then you can contact the office of this operator and ask to restore the lost number. For this procedure, you may need a passport, as well as some amount of money to cover the cost of making a new SIM card. If these methods did not help you, then the last thing left is to contact VKontakte support.
To restore your page if access is completely lost, write to VKontakte support. To make it easier for you, you can follow this link https://vk.com/restore?act=return_page&mid=76889766. You need to enter your phone number, even if you do not have access to it, and then attach your photo in the background of your page on the monitor screen, and then send it to support. You also need to take a second photo, which will show your passport unfolded. Of course, this procedure is unpleasant, especially since in some cases the site administration may ask you to re-photograph, but there are no other ways to restore the page. Therefore, try to follow the site instructions exactly and take high quality photos.

In addition, you will need to explain under what circumstances you lost access to your page. You should not write a specific date, especially if it was several years ago, because this may cause suspicion as it is impossible to remember. Write approximate dates.

If the VKontakte administration approves the restoration of your page, then in this case, if your VKontakte name did not correspond to the real name in your passport, these changes will be made automatically. In this case, you will not be able to change the first and last name of your page.

Restoring your page may take a lot of time, so be patient, because all applications are reviewed manually, and there are many who want to restore access to VKontakte.

Contacting support

If none of the above methods work, it is important to understand that there is no secret method for recovering the password for your account on the site, but if all else fails, there is another option - contact the social network’s support service directly. This works after authorization on the site, so you will have to use a friend’s computer

After logging into the social network, go to https://vk.com/support?act=new, enter the topic of your question in the appropriate field and describe the current situation in as much detail as possible - what is not working, what methods have already been used. It is also recommended to provide as much information as possible from your page for which the password has been lost.

Contacting support is the last resort to restore the page

Note! This method is only suitable if the page being restored contains real data and a photo of its owner. A fake account cannot be restored. It is recommended to provide the following information:

It is recommended to provide the following information:

active phone number (to which you currently have access), it will be a new login, you cannot use one already linked to an account, otherwise access to it will be lost;
a high-quality photo of the page owner against the background of the completed application;
a photograph of the document, which clearly shows the first and last name, as well as a photograph of the owner;
personal comment describing the reasons for losing access to your account.

If necessary, additional information is indicated in the comment:

if personal photos on the page were in a hidden album, this should be stated along with its name;
if the photo was deleted from the moment access to the page was lost, then when did this happen;
the page contains a false last name, but the user agrees to change it to a real one based on the documents provided;
if outsiders gained access to the page after it was lost, what information was changed.

After this, all that remains is to send the application and wait for a response from the administration, which will arrive in a few days to the specified contact - telephone or mail.

Thus, if necessary, it is quite possible to restore access to a personal VKontakte account when the user has lost his password, and all methods existing at that time have been considered. So anyone who is faced with a similar situation should not have any problems restoring their personal account.

How to view a private profile on VKontakte

Undoubtedly, not all VK account owners liked such innovations. Many users who want to gain access to a private VK profile have begun to look for ways to view a private account. Despite the fact that the arsenal of such tools is quite limited, below we will consider all the available alternatives.

Add a user as a friend to open a VK account

The first, and easiest, way to view a private VKontakte 2021 profile is to add the desired user as a friend. After your request is approved, most of the information about its page will become available to you, including the necessary confidential data.

If you have a tense relationship with such a user, create a fake page on VK. Choose an attractive avatar (for example, an attractive member of the opposite sex). Fill out the form in a representative manner and send a request to be added as a friend. Usually in such cases the chances of gaining access to a closed VK 2010 page increase significantly.

Add the desired user as a friend

Ask friends for help

Another option to open a private account in VK is to contact friends (acquaintances) who have the owner of the private profile as a friend. With a sufficient level of friendly relations, they will send you all the necessary information from a closed page, while maintaining your anonymity. Remember that you should only make such a request to people you fully trust. Otherwise, your request may become the property of the author of a closed profile with unpredictable consequences.

Ask your friends for help

Visit the desired user in person

If there is a trusting relationship between you and the owner of a private profile, you can visit his location under any pretext. Get access to his PC and view his private profile in VK 2021. Despite the low probability of this method, you should not completely reset his accounts.

Phishing sites

There are a sufficient number of services on the Internet that promise quick and convenient access to a closed page. Usually they offer you to indicate the ID of the closed page (this ID can be found, for example, using the regvk.com service), and pay some amount for their services. They also require you to enter your username and password (for allegedly accessing the desired page). You enter your data, click on the access activation button, after which nothing happens.

Phishing sites do not have any effectiveness

This procedure helps attackers obtain the login and password for your VK account. What they will do with these identifiers next is a rhetorical question. Some block the user’s page and start demanding money for access. The latter merge the received data into some user databases. Still others simply plant a virus on such an account, and it sends out various “chain letters” to all his friends on behalf of the hacked user.

Other services of a similar nature (for example, the well-known vkontakte.doguran.ru) simply do not work with closed profiles, so the effectiveness of their use is deeply questionable.

Resources at the vkontakte.doguran.ru level do not provide any tangible results

Hacker help

On the Internet you can find many advertisements promising to hack any VK page and view a private VK 2021 profile for a certain fee. In most cases, it is quite difficult to verify the qualifications of such “traditional craftsmen”. In this case, it is impossible to guarantee a 100% effect, as well as a guarantee of the return of prepaid funds in case of failure. Therefore, as in the case of phishing sites, you act at your own peril and risk, and it is quite possible that the money you paid will simply disappear without any tangible result.

The help of imaginary hackers may not give any result

"Unable to sign in" error

If, when you try to log into your profile, the error “Cannot login” appears, it means that your login or password is not suitable.

Login is the phone number or email address to which the page was registered.
Password is an access code, several English letters/numbers.

How to find out your username and password

This method is suitable if the page opens automatically on one of your devices - without entering a login and password. This means that the browser remembers the data and can be retrieved.

On the computer

Method 1: via page code

This method is suitable if the login form on the vk.com website shows the login, and the password is hidden under the dots. To display it, right-click on the field and select “View Code.”

A panel with a code will open in the lower window, where the password field will be highlighted.

Replace the password parameter with text.

As a result, your password will appear in the login form instead of dots.

Method 2: Through a password manager

1. In your browser, click the three dots button at the top and open Settings.

2. Click on the "Autofill" section and click on "Passwords".

3. Click on the “eye” icon opposite vk.com.

The manager will show both the login and password.

On a note. Both the first and second options are shown using the Google Chrome program as an example. In other browsers, everything happens exactly the same, only the names of the items may be slightly different.

On the phone (in a mobile browser)

1. Tap the three dots icon and open Settings.

2. Go to the “Passwords” section.

3. Click on vk.com.

4. Click on the “eye” to decrypt.

Done - the data is shown in text form.

Recovery by phone number

1. On the main page of vk.com, in the login field, click on the “Forgot your password?” link.

Prove that you are not a robot by choosing the right pictures.

3. Type your last name as it appears on your profile and click Next.

4. An icon with your data will appear. If everything is correct, click “Yes, this is the right page.”

5. Press the “Call” button, after which the phone will receive a reset call.

Enter the last four digits of the number in the next field and click the "Submit Code" button.

6. Create a new password and click “Submit”.

After this, your profile will be loaded.

Recovery without phone

1. On the vk.com website, in the login field, click on the “Forgot your password?” link.

2. At the bottom, in the section “If you do not remember the data or do not have access to the phone,” select “click here.”

3. Then you need to enter a link to the page.

The easiest way to do this is to contact one of your friends. Ask him to open your profile and say the address from the top line of the browser.

Or you can try to find the profile through the search yourself. At the bottom, where it says “If you don’t know the address...”, select “Click here.”

Enter your first and last name from your profile, indicate your place of residence and other parameters. When your account appears, click on the “This is my page” button.

4. A window will open where you need to enter your available phone number.

5. Then take a photo against the background of the application and send the photo for verification by clicking the “Upload photo” button.

Important! Your profile must contain your real photos so that the administration can compare them with the photo you sent.

6. Upload a color copy of your identity document (passport, license) via the “Upload photo” button.

The restoration request has been created. Wait for the administration's decision.

Problems logging in to your computer

If you have access to the phone number from the page, but cannot recover your account, it may be due to a computer virus.

To check, try logging into your profile from another device, for example, from a mobile device. If that doesn’t work, restore access, but not through the computer, but through the phone. Usually the page opens normally this way. This means that the problem is a virus and it needs to be removed.

1. Download two free antivirus utilities to your computer:

Dr.Web CureIt! at free.drweb.ru/cureit.

2. Run each of them in turn and clean your computer from viruses (the “Start scan” and “Scan” buttons).

3. Check the system hosts file.

Press the Windows key (04) followed by the letter R. Paste the code %windir%\system32\drivers\etc into the window and click OK.

The computer's system folder will open. Run the hosts file in Notepad. To do this, right-click on it and select “Open with”.

In the window, select “Notepad” and click OK.

Delete all entries with addresses vk.com, vkontakte.ru, etc.

4. Save the changes: File – Save. Then close everything, restart your computer and try logging into VK again.

Recovering a deleted photo from VKontakte

Have you accidentally or deliberately deleted photos from your VKontakte albums and want to restore them? You won’t be able to simply take and quickly recover a photo; only if you clicked delete photo, the “Recover” button will appear in case you deleted the photo by mistake. And if you left this page where you deleted the photo, then the chances of recovery will be reduced several times.

Let's look at options for how to recover deleted photos.

Photos that you deleted from your page do not disappear completely. They remain on VK servers. No user has access to them. Recovering photos from VK servers is almost impossible. To open this photo you need to know the exact link, but no one will tell us it. And finding such a link is completely unrealistic.

Recovering a deleted photo from a VKontakte page

Therefore, we must immediately use other options. You shouldn’t put off photo restoration for long.

Option one:

Check if this photo is on your computer, phone, tablet or other Internet resources you use. Check all folders, flash drives, disks.

Option two:

Your page was open to search engines, the album with your photo was not closed, which means the photo can be saved in Google. Google often makes copies of pages on the Internet and stores them for a while. This is called cached. If little time has passed since the deletion, there is a chance to restore the photo. But it happens that you can only return a thumbnail of a deleted photo.

We check whether the page remains in Google's cache. Copy the address of your VK page and paste it into the search. If the result shows something, do the following:

Click on the small green triangle next to the page address.
Select "Saved Copy".
Click on it.

Now the saved copy of your page will open. If there is a photo there that you want to restore, open it and save it somewhere to yourself (usually you need to right-click on the photo and select “Save image as...”).

Third option:

Your browser cache is one of the best options.

If you recently viewed this photo in full size, then it could remain in the cache of your browser - the program with which you view websites. In other words, in her temporary files. This is one of the real chances, you will need a program to view the cache. There are different programs for different browsers, download and run the one that is designed specifically for yours (Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer). If you're not very computer savvy, it's time to stop touching anything and call someone who is.

It is impossible to restore a deleted album. They are deleted once and for all. Think before you delete the entire album, it might be easier to just hide it. And it is also impossible to restore photos with likes. Therefore, before you take and delete any photo, think.

How to view private photos in VKontakte

The most curious users of the popular social network want to know

how to view private photos in VKontakte and do it in permitted, safe ways. After all, there is nothing more attractive than seeing with your own eyes what is hidden, especially if there is a person you know in the photographs. You can look at such images, and there are several ways.

view private photos on VKontakte

Way to look at photos #1

It consists of substituting the id of the person whose photo you want to look at in a pre-generated URL. The URL is a link that leads to the photos, but this link is hidden for you. If you take a link to the photos of someone who did not hide and replace his id number with the desired one, you will be able to see the necessary images. You should already know where to look for id, how to raise it in contact and similar common truths, we will not return to this. If you don’t know, read the article linked in the previous paragraph.

So, copy the id and paste it into this url

Method of viewing closed photos No. 2

The method is called Clicking and works only in cases where some photos from the album are hidden by privacy settings. If all the photos are closed, then see method number 4. And clicking is as follows.

- find the right person - go to his photo album - at the very bottom of the page click on the link - enable quick view - click on the photo in front of the photo that is closed - then click the Next button - that’s all, the photo will be open

Here is a visual how to view private photos in contact video that describes this method

Vkontakte save yourself where to look. How to view saved VKontakte photos. adding and deleting

Way to view private photos number 3

The point of this method is to use a little screening by the developers, which makes it very easy to view photos on completely closed VKontakte pages. This method works exactly for them. You need to do the following:

- find the desired, closed page - make sure that the profile avatar consists of several photos, that is, changes after you click on it - click on any link in the page menu - immediately click on the avatar - a window will open with the ability to view all closed photo

The only thing you need to pay attention to is the speed of transition from the menu to the avatar, the faster the better. Here's a look at closed photos in contact video instructions, with a description of this method

Way to see closed photos number 4

Well, the last way to view, probably the most popular and most efficient, is to use Durov’s official website durov.ru. It has everything that is in Contact, only some privacy settings for some reason do not work. And if you use the substitution of the desired id in the link, as described in method number 1, then you will be able to view private photos in the contact. Of course, the link must be different from the one specified in the first method and it looks like this

insert the id after the hash, go to the album and see everything you need. The method works and does not violate anything at all.

We remind you, do not use programs that promise something that is not real, something that is not available and therefore desirable. If you can’t watch it, then you don’t need it, no program will help, especially since almost all programs that promise to do something amazing with a social network, look at closed ones, find out who visited my VKontakte page or left an opinion, turn out to be harmful and dangerous . Don't lose your head, communicate with those you like

Contact tech. support

Some users and sites recommend contacting the technical support of the social network for a deleted photo. However, there is no chance that the photo will be returned. It is not known for certain where various user data is stored (or whether it is stored at all).

It’s another matter if the picture disappears or is not displayed correctly - in this case, you can contact technical support and describe the problem.

The social networking service allows users to post photos and other materials on their page, which is often used for storage, quick transfer, and other things.

However, sometimes it happens that a user accidentally deletes a very important image without having any copy of it. That is, she disappears forever

Before taking any action, you need to check if the image is saved in some other place - on the camera’s memory card, in your phone’s downloads, on your computer. This way you can save time and nerves.

So, VKontakte stores on servers all photos deleted from accounts.

It should be understood that there is no convenient way to view deleted photos; social networking services do not provide this. For example, there is a recycle bin on your computer that contains all your deleted files and can be used to easily recover them, but a similar folder simply does not exist on the Internet.

So, what makes it particularly difficult is the fact that there is no specific link left on the photo, otherwise one could simply find the image through a search engine if the photo album and the page itself were not restricted for viewing.

To find a deleted photo, you should copy the account link and paste it into the search. Several links will appear. Under the first of them, you need to click on the small triangle and select the “Saved copy” tab. A saved copy of your account will open, where you can find the deleted image and copy it to your computer using “Save as...”.

It is also possible to recover a deleted photo if it was recently viewed in full size, which means it is temporarily stored in the browser cache. To find it, you need a special program to view the cache in the browser - each of them has a special program. You should use the Web Browser Tools application package, which contains the necessary utilities.

After activating the application, a list of all deleted photos will open, in which there is the possibility of recovery

It is logical to look for jpeg or jpg files and pay attention to the file size.

If none of the above is successful, then it makes sense to write to the technical support of the social network and ask for help with recovery

If the question is about a really important photo, then the moderators will probably pay attention to it

It is important that there is no way to restore an album of images. After confirmation of deletion, the album will disappear without any possibility of recovery

Also, first of all, you should think about deleting each of the photos. If a photo was deleted by accident, you can immediately restore it before the page is refreshed.

How to view a closed page in Contact

Social networks are becoming more and more dense in our lives. For example, statistics show that now the most popular of them in the vast post-Soviet space (VKontakte) has an audience of over 100 million active users. Based on the fact that here we leave not only personal information, but also photos, video content, and as well as other data, the developers have implemented a flexible privacy system.

You can hide literally anything you want from prying eyes - your audio recordings, photographs, videos, or even an entire page.

How to look knowing ID

You know that an acquaintance made a cool photo status, but suddenly he closed his page from prying eyes.

In order to view the hidden VKontakte page, we will use the most convenient way - the vkontakte.doguran.ru service.

We copy it, paste it into a special field, and press the “send” button. Within a second, we are given links with which we can view the user’s albums, photos, notes, the last ten posts on the wall, applications, etc.

Read on topic:

How to look without knowing the user ID

It would seem that everything is simple and clear - opening a closed page, just like finding out your ID in Contact, is a matter of a few mouse clicks.

But keep in mind the fact that most users prefer nicknames, which are page addresses, to the usual banal ID.

Read on topic:

How to find out ID

Finding out the ID of a specific page is easier than learning how to draw VKontakte graffiti. We will need at least a minute. Open the person’s page and hover over the “Send message” button in the lower left corner of the browser to display a link to this action.

The numbers that you will see after the word “write” (highlighted in yellow) are the user’s page ID. You already know what to do next from the first point of our instructions.

Read on topic:

If you see an error, please select a piece of text and press Ctrl+Enter.

A copy of the page in the Google search engine

If your page was open to everyone (or the album with the photo you were looking for was not closed), then the deleted photo could be saved in Google. From time to time, Google makes copies of all pages on the Internet and stores them for a while. This is called "in cache". There is a chance of recovery if not much time has passed since the deletion (no more than a week). But even if the photo remains there, most often it is possible to restore only the miniature (photo in a small size).

Check if your page is still in the Google cache - enter the address of your VKontakte page in the search bar (below) - for example, https://vk.com/id126494354

. The easiest way is to open your VKontakte page and copy the address here from the address bar of your browser.

Finding a saved copy of the VK page

Then click "Find"

A new page with search results will open. If you find something, open your saved page:

Click on the small green triangle next to the page address.
Select "Saved Copy".
Click on it.

An example of what it looks like:

If there is no green triangle at all, then there is no copy of the page in Google, and this method will not work.

On your personal page

You can open or hide an album on VKontakte on your personal page quite simply. You just need to know the correct procedure. Since the computer and mobile versions of the social network have significant differences, each option will be considered separately.

On the computer

To hide or open an album on VKontakte on your personal page via a personal computer, you need to do the following series of actions:

Go to the official VKontakte page and go to the “Photos” section. There, find a suitable album and hover your mouse over it. A pencil icon should appear in the upper right part of the album; click on it with the left mouse button.
A menu for editing the album will open. You will need to find the item “Who can view this album?”. A little to the right of this item there will be a characteristic signature on which you will need to click with the left mouse button. In my case, this is the line “Only me.”
After clicking, a small window should appear with several settings options. If you select the “Only me” column, then this album will be hidden from all users of the social network. You can select the "Friends Only" option. Then the selected album will be open to your friends on VK. Left-click on the desired option.
All that remains is to click LMB on the “Save changes” item.
Ready. Thus, you can open or hide an album in VK on your personal page via a personal computer.

On the phone

Now let's figure out how to hide or open an album in VK on a personal page through a mobile device. Methods for two smartphones will be discussed below.

Android

Let's start with an Android phone. To open or hide an album on VKontakte, the user will need to perform the following series of actions:

Launch the VKontakte application and go to the page with your profile on the social network. You will need to click on the “Photos” column.
You will be redirected to a tab with all the photos and albums that are on your personal page. Click on the album for which you want to change the privacy settings.
When the album opens, click on the three dots icon. This icon is located at the top right side of the screen.
A small menu will pop up. Click once on the “Edit” item.
A special page for setting up the album will open. You will need to click on the “Who can view this album?” column.
A list will appear with several privacy settings options. If you want everyone to see the album, click on the “All users” column. If you select the “Only me” option, the album will be hidden from all users. You can choose any other option from those offered. After that, click on the arrows to exit.
If you are finished, click on the checkmark icon. It is located at the top right of the page.

iPhone

If you want to hide or open an album on a social network on your personal page via iPhone, then you will need to use the following algorithm of actions:

On your smartphone, open the VKontakte application and go to the section with your profile. There will be a section with your images, click directly on the “Photos” line.
On the next page you will need to find the “Show all” item and click on it.
Now, look at the top right of the page. There will be a line “Change”, click on it once.
After that, click on the name of your album.
A special page for editing the album should open. You will need to click on the “Who can view this album?” box.
You will be redirected to the tab for privacy settings. If you want to hide the album from everyone, then click on the “Only me” column. If, on the contrary, you want to open the selected album for a certain circle of people, then click on any other option. When you make your choice, click on the arrow located at the top left of the screen.
All you have to do is click the “Done” button. This will complete editing the album.

View Browser Cache

If Google has not saved a copy of your VKontakte page, then try to find deleted photos in the cache of the browser you used to log into your VK account. Any photo you open is saved in temporary files of the web browser, so if you looked at the photos in VKontakte, you can restore them through a program for viewing the browser cache.

To restore a photo deleted from a page in Contact, right-click on it. You can open the photo in the browser by selecting “Open Link”, or save the image directly to your computer by clicking “Cope Selected” and specifying a folder.

Deleting photos from VKontakte is not difficult - all it takes is a few clicks of the mouse. Is it possible to restore these images and if so, how to do it?

The easiest way to restore a photo is if you did not have time to refresh the page. See: after you click on the “Delete” button, the system tells you that the image has been deleted. But! You can still restore it if you click on the button of the same name:

It is extremely important that you do not close the tab and do not refresh the page. Then the recovery will be successful

If you do refresh the page, you can “dig” into the saved cache, if, of course, the browser supports cache storage. How to do it? For example, in Google Chrome, you can enter the command chrome://cache/ into the browser line and press Enter - you will see a huge list of documents in front of you. Look among them for those that look something like this: vk.me/c5456454/v6542576244/114552222/VhrpdlsSjfdggE.jpg. These are pictures that were saved in the cache when you visited the VKontakte website. These may include your photographs.

If the browser cache method does not work, you will need to try using a cached version of the page in the browser. This method only works if your page is cached in the browser and if you have photos open.

To do this, go to Google and write the address of your page in the search bar - vk.com/your id. For example, vk.com/id1. Next, click on the arrow, as shown in the screenshot, and select “Saved copy”.

On the cached page you will see saved photos that you deleted.

Well, in order to avoid getting into similar situations in the future, always store photos on your computer or at least in your phone’s memory.

Re-adding

If support refuses to restore your images in the feed, then there is another way. You need to go to your album, where the photo you need is stored, and delete it forever, and then add it again to your page, so it will definitely appear in your feed again. This method can be called optimal; it is simple and therefore understandable to everyone. Don't forget that people who visit your page most often look at the feed first, so make sure that the photos that are located in it are bright, interesting and of high quality. This way you will interest a large number of friends. In conclusion, let’s say that some users are interested in the question of how to view hidden VKontakte photos in other people’s albums. Please note that such activity violates the site rules, so there is no legal method. Applications that promise such capabilities are most often viruses and are created to steal personal data. Use only official programs from VK developers.

There is no magic button that will easily and simply restore a deleted photo or VKontakte ava. “Recover” link appears.

in case the photo was deleted by mistake. But if you have already left there, read this instruction to the end.

Deleted photos disappear from your page, but remain on VKontakte servers. This does not mean,

that it will be easier to recover a deleted photo (or avatar) and especially does not mean that anyone can look at your deleted photos. The fact is that it is easier for VKontakte owners not to delete photos completely, but only to remove them from the pages so that no one can find them.

How to hide photos

There are several ways to close photos on VKontakte:

Click on the icon at the top of the image thumbnail in the feed and confirm the action;
Upload photos to an album with a restriction of users allowed to view;
You can change the list of people who can view information and photos in your profile by clicking on the arrow at the top of the page on the right. By selecting “Settings”, a menu will appear from which you need to click “Privacy”. In the central field there will be options for restrictions on various data on the page.

How to recover photos through support?

The last chance is to write to VKontakte technical support and ask to recover deleted photos. Do it as quickly as possible, you literally have only a few days! Give them the following information:

I accidentally deleted a photo, please restore it.
How many photos did you delete?
When exactly did I delete them and how exactly?

In order not to search, you can create a new support request about deleted photos using this link: Create a new support request (it may not open in the mobile application, you need to use a browser; it is better to do this from a computer, not from a phone).

Recovering deleted data is not guaranteed in any case. We don't know whether they will help you. Good luck!

Illegal posting of materials

Illegal videos or audio recordings are also grounds for blocking someone else’s page. As you know, copyrights cannot be violated, and the use of pirated audio and video recordings violates the law. The user just needs to write to the administration that the specified page contains unlicensed materials that violate rights.

Don’t forget that VKontakte technical support employs people. If slander or insults are spread against you, you can also ask to delete the ill-wisher’s account. Most likely, the administration will understand your position and listen to your request.

Many users restrict access to viewing their photos using . Or this option is possible when the albums are not published on the page - you just don’t know how to access them (see).

But I really want to see what the user has hidden. Let's figure out how to view hidden VKontakte photos
