You probably couldn't, but read on.

System Restore restores the operating System. It does nothing for
your data.

Two points:
1 check the trash.
2. assuming that it is not in the Recycle Bin, read and try it
Next. You to know that your chances of success after a month
passes are extremely low.
"Deleting" a file does not actually delete it marks just the space
also available to be used. There are third-party programs that can
sometimes recover deleted files. The problem is that the space used by
the file is likely to be replaced very quickly, and it makes
the unrecoverable file.
So your chances of successfully recover this file are decent if you
Try it again immediately after the deletion of it and go quickly
downhill from there. If you have used the computer since then (for
example to write this question and read this answer), your chances may
be very poor now.
But if the file is large enough, it's still worth a try. Stop
using the computer in question immediately, if you have not done
already. Download an undelete program (and here's one:)

others to choose from; Do a search) on a friend's computer and bring
it to you on a floppy disk, CD or USB to try.
If that fails, your only recourse is to bring or send the disc
a company of professional file recovery. This kind of service is very
expensive and may or may not work in your case.

How to recover files deleted from windows Vista Sp2?
I lost a bunch of files system - a few apps. do not work correctly under Vista. I is not a disk recovery and would like to preserve as much as possible with the existing settings. I have Sp1 and Sp2 and installation disks. However when I try to reinstall, the answer is that they are already installed and the re - install fails. Under Xp, it was easy to do to repair a corrupted installation.

and try this
also run the sfc/scannow command.

Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:
- Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally madeprograms,Accessories, right-clickguest, and then clickrun as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or clickallow.

How to recover files deleted from permanentaly in win XP?
How to recover files deleted from permanentaly in win XP?
In addition to monocrisis, you will want to take note of the date to which it has been deleted from the Recycle Bin.
This will be useful when you are looking for the deleted file, as any recovery software will show you all that can be recovered. You will probably have a long list of files returned and knowing that date will help search what is returned by the software you choose.
Good luck!

Very well. My computer is messed up awhile back and my friend saved my whole hard drive, the files system and everything, then wiped and restored, then ALL put in a folder called "windows.old" that I can access my hard drive. So since he has saved the files system and everything, I'll be able to recover my old files I had deleted before it was erased, if (hopefully) they is not replaced? If so, what filepath can I go in?
Hi thatonehxckid,
The content in the trash is not saved in the folder windows.old during a custom installation.
