Neelu,

The deletions probably exceeded the limited capacity of the recycle bin,
which would explain why restoration was incomplete.

I would stop using the PC immediately to avoid overwriting what's left.
Then I would take the PC (or just the hard drive) to a specialist in file
recovery. After that, you may need to reinstall your applications. I
say that because you have no way of knowing exactly which of their files
were deleted.

I can't imagine what you were trying to accomplish by deleting the
"everywhere" results. And please, from now on, make backups of all your
pictures and documents!

I've already suggested what I think you should do to recover your
documents and pictures: your best bet is to send the laptop to a firm that
specializes in file recovery. Do nothing on the laptop before that! You
can find such firms on Google (but use someone else's PC). The
alternative is to purchase recovery software and try to recover your files
yourself, but unless you know what you are doing, the results are unlikely
to be good. You will be better off using a professional who does file
recovery every day.

After that, if your user folders still have problems, you could create a
new user profile for yourself and then copy the remaining documents and
pictures (and any recovered ones) to the new profile. Then you could
delete the old profile.

Good luck,

Retroman already told you what you should do.

It looks like you lack experience (not a bad thing - we were all there once)
to do what is necessary.

Send the drive to Drive Savers (or some similar service organization) for
file recovery or consider them likely as lost.

Next time ask before you do, not after when you have already damaged your
system.

If you still have restore points (shadows) from before you deleted the
stuff, you can try the way I describe here: 'Tutorial: Recover lost
files with Shadow Explorer « How-To Geek Forums'
