I have files that were accidently deleted from recycle bin. Can anyone tell me how I can restore them or find a program for recovering the missing files?

They're gone. Reinstall the program they came from and the missing ones should be put back in.

You could try the Undelete program which is on the Win Cd [x:\other\oldmsdos]if not something that can be re-installed or you could lash out and buy Norton Utilities which has an excellent file recovery program for Windows and Dos called 'Unerase'. this can probably recover the rest of the DEAD SEA scrolls. Of course if you have formatted or defragged your drive your files are down the gurgler.

If you are using an NT system (NTFS file system) You can use File Scavenger to recover the lost files...no problem. As far as windows 9x, there are several programs you can use, one of which is Nortons Utilities as mentioned above. However, this CAN BE DONE even if you have formatted or defragged! Unless, that is, data has been written to the portion of your hard drive where the deleted files were originally written. If the files are small, this is much less likely. It is worth a try.
