Do a repair install ... This may work, it may not... see Brinks Tutorial --==> Here

well, technically not all deleted but all info for programs are gone, my desktop pic is the default, the icon in the taskbar are default, everything is there but as if i just installed it and all the data of it is gone? did i do something wrong?

You say you are on a temp account.

Did you navigate to "C:\Users\Your User Name here\" to see if your original profile with your files exists?

At this point its moot... its possible that by doing a repair install you can recover from whatever damage was done.. other than that, you will need to do a reinstall of the OS.. Did you back your data up??

system repair and restore didn't do anything, i am still on some temp account, in my user folder there is "Dave" "public" "TEMP" and "TEMP.Dave-PC" i'll take a guess that i am on TEMP.dave-PC right? what do i do to get on my normal account with all my info?

At this point I would do a reinstall of the OS.... I know that this is probably not what you want to hear, but I dont see any alternative at this point...

well i see lots of other people posting possible solutions, i don't even see your logic behind reinstalling the OS because all my info is everywhere, explain?
