How do I restore a folder deleted from favorites by accident?

Folder contained links to a few dozen websites.

Folder and contents not in Recycle Bin

Hi barry,

See if a previous version of Favorites contains it. Right click the folder
(C:\Users\<user>\Favorites), choose "restore previous version".

Otherwise, try this tool:

Try using system restore and selecting the restore point nearest to the date
you deleted that folder(I found out that System restore works great on Vista
but not in ME or XP)

Hi Barry,

As Rick posted:
If you have the the Ultimate, Business, or Enterprise edition of Vista,
then you can use Previous Versions to see if you can restore the folder
from within the "Favorites" folder. Step 2 in this tutorial will show
you how to.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
