What you need is a data rescue program. I haven't used them very often myself, but you can search for "Undelete" and find results like this, this or this.

If no program works and the data is really important, you might want to consider a professional company restoring your data. Apparently the can nearly always restore at least 80-90% of the deleted Files. However, that will cost you quite a lot.

One last hint: As long as the data isn't restored, save as little as possible on the drive, as that could overwrite the stuff, that you want restored even more.

Greetings,
Nepomuk

PS.: Thanks, but normally help here is free and I don't think, I'll buy anything from your ebay shop. No offence, but your stuff isn't quite "my style"... :-D

i am sorry about that happening..
here is the cause:

if you "DISK CLEANUP" and go to like Advanced options and use a utility that says:

Empties the system restore files.... ususally saves more space..

you probabally ran that utility and so, it wiped up all of your Backup files...

don't ever do that....
