Hi, while performing a Mac hard drive cleaning operating, I have accidentally deleted some of my commonly used video and archive (ZIP) files. Also they are not in the Mac Trash folder. Is there any professional and secure Mac file recovery software available that can help me in the recovery of these video and archive files from my Mac Mojave 10.14?
MacBook Air (2018 or later)
Important Note:- Please stop using your macOS Mojave 10.14 computer as soon as possible to increase the possibility of video and ZIP files recovery.

If you have a Time Machine or other backup you can restore them from there. Software solutions may or may not work and you need an external drive to recover them to. None are free although most have a free trial so you can see what will be recovered if anything before you purchase. I've had good results from iBeesoft Data Recovery.
@rike114, I don’t have Time machine and External drive backup available of those deleted video and archive files. Also, I lack the Trash folder recovery. However, I tried the software suggestion mentioned in your answer and they worked for me perfectly. Again Thanks a lot for your helpful contribution and now I have successfully rescue all my deleted files back to my Mac computer.
@dialbrain, I was lacking both TimeMachine and other backup. I have used data recovery apps for Mac and got success. But, Thanks for your response..
