At this point you’ll probably have to use a program like ‘Restoration’ (www.snapfiles.com/get/restoration.html) or ‘Recuva’ (www.recuva.com/) (both free file recovery programs). These programs will check all free disk space for the remains of previously deleted files. If you haven’t done much on your computer since deleting the file, there is a good chance of recovering the file. If you’ve done a lot of downloading, it’s possible a new file has been written over the space that previously held your file. Good luck!
