    How to get back deleted file/folder?


    Hi,
    I deleted a folder, its size was more than 10GB it had a few games which I didn't want but now I want to get it back as it has a few setup files and saved games. When I deleted it, the folder didn't go to recycle bin it could be because of the size, but I didn't get any pop ups about the same either. Please tell me how to get it back.

    Thanks,
    Chinu

    Right click on the folder where the deleted files were located. Select "restore previous version"
