It’s quite common to fall in a situation where you accidentally deleted some files and now you need them. You may have deleted them while cleaning up your system which is not so different from what usually happens when we clean a messy office desk. Unlike the office desk where an important file once sent along with garbage cannot be retrieved, it is possible to recover lost files on your Desktop. For PC users there is a decent software called Recuva by Piriform which can easily recover deleted files from your PC.
