If you are running windows this is easy if you have not permanently deleted what you want..

Just click on the recycle bin and you will see a list of everything you have deleted.

Click on what you want to restore and click on "restore this item". It will go back to where it was when you deleted it.

If you have emptied your wastebasket it will be really hard to get something back.

If it is something really really valuable you might be able to pay an expert to retrieve it from

your hard drive because you see, when you "permanently" delete a file, all that is really

deleted is the address of the file in the directory. Until another file is written over it, which happens somewhat randomly, it can be recovered. This is why old hard drives should be reformatted or destroyed when a computer is sold or retired if it held sensitive information.
