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 the Google search engine:
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.
Search via webarchive
There is a place on the Internet where the histories of different sites are stored. It's called a webarchive. Found at the link. It is now impossible to access here using a Russian IP - access is blocked by Roskomnadzor. However, this problem is easily solved by simply changing the IP address. You can take any country.
You can go to the main web archive, where you need to find a block called Wayback Machine and paste the previously copied address of the remote page, and then press “enter”. It is quite possible that you will be lucky and it will be found in the archive. If it is not there, the program will respond that the saved copy is missing.
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.
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.
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 the example of Opera
:
These are all ways to view information that was previously located on a remote VKontakte page.
Services and tricks with which you can find EVERYTHING.
Why is this needed:
Did you briefly read the article in the morning and decided to take a closer look in the evening, but it’s not on the website? A few years ago you visited a useful site, today you remembered it, but there’s nothing left on the same domain? This has happened to each of us. But there is a way out.
Everything that goes on the Internet is stored there forever. If some information is posted on the Internet for at least a couple of days, there is a high probability that it has become the property of the collective mind. And you will be able to reach her.
Let's talk about simple and publicly available ways to find sites and pages that have been deleted for some reason.
Why did the person delete the page?
This is his personal business. Sometimes pages are deleted in an emotional outburst, demonstratively, to prove something to someone (especially teenagers), or if some troubles happen, etc. Maybe a person just wants to take a break from VK and hasn’t found another way to do it. But very often people return to VK, restore the page or create a new one.
You can use the search - How to find a person on VKontakte to check if the person has created a new page. Of course, you need to know who to look for - that is, the person’s first and last name. But he could create a fake page (with fake data), although this is prohibited by the site rules.
Browser cache when all else fails
You can’t view the entire page this way, but images and scripts from some sites are stored on your computer for a certain period of time. They can be used to search for information. For example, using a picture from the instructions, you can find a similar one on another site. Briefly about the approach to viewing cache files in different browsers:
Safari
We are looking for files in the folder ~/Library/Caches/Safari
.
Google Chrome
In the address bar type chrome://cache
Opera
In the address bar we type opera://cache
Mozilla Firefox
Type about:cache
and find on it the path to the directory with the cache files.
Option 2: copies of pages in search engines
Earlier I told you that search engine users don’t need to go to sites - just look at a copy of the page in a search engine, and this is a good way to solve our problem.
On Google
— use the info: operator, specifying the desired URL. Example:
To Yandex
— use the url: operator, specifying the desired URL. Example:
Hover your mouse over the (green) URL in the snippet and click the “ copy”
».
The problem is that search engines only store the last indexed copy of the page. If a page is deleted, over time it will become unavailable in search engines.
What to do if nothing helps at all
If none of the methods yielded results, and you desperately need to find the deleted page, then all that remains is to contact the site owner and shake out the treasured information from him. First, you can get through the contacts associated with the site on emailhunter.com:
And about collecting information about people, read the articles and.

Let's talk about simple and publicly available ways to find sites and pages that have been deleted for some reason.
1. Google cache that remembers everything
Google specifically stores the text of all web pages so that people can view them if the site is unavailable. To view the version of the page from the Google cache, type in the address bar:
https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:https://www.iphones.ru/
Where is https://www.iphones.ru/
must be replaced with the address of the site you are looking for.
2. Web-archive, which contains the entire history of the Internet
6. Archive.is, for your own cache
If you need to save some web page, you can do this on archive.is without registration and SMS. There is also a global search for all versions of pages ever saved by users of the service. There are even several saved copies of iPhones.ru.
7. Caches of other search engines, you never know
If Google, Baidu and Yandex did not manage to save anything sensible, but a copy of the page is really needed, then we go to seacrhenginelist.com, go through the search engines and hope for the best (so that some bot visits the site at the right time).
8. Browser cache when all else fails
