Any time that a file is deleted from a hard drive, it is not erased. What is erased is the bit of information that points to the location of the file on the hard drive. The file is flagged as "not there" and ignored by the system
It will usually delete files that have been sent to the trash rather than actually deleted.
Files that have been deleted from the computer by the user can either be deleted from the hard drive directly or sent to the recycling bin. Files that are detected by your anti-virus software are often sent to a quarantine folder on your hard drive.
Deleted files, links and programs can be sent to the Recycle Bin and later deleted.
Join.me can see your screen but can it see deleted files?
The Recycle Bin. Windows keeps a special folder, for each disk, for the deleted files; if you open the "Recycle Bin", Windows will show you the deleted files for all connected drives.Note that Windows keeps only a certain number of MB of files for each drive; once that is passed, the oldest deleted files are eliminated permanently, when additional files are deleted.
Nowhere, they are deleted.
No chance !... Once a file is deleted, the memory previously used by that file is marked as 'free' space. As you say, you've '...used it since the files were deleted...' - I can almost guarantee the deleted files will not be recoverable !

Where do the files go when deleted permanently from the system?hard driveHARD DRIVE
Most of the time, deleted files are sent to a temporary storage folder commonly known as the "recycle bin". In the recycle bin, you can view "deleted" files and decide whether to permanently remove them or restore them back to their original location. Once a file has been deleted from the recycle bin, it cannot be recovered in any way.
If you want the deleted files back from Windows hard drives, firstly you can check the Recycle Bin to see if the deleted files are stored there. If you have emptied the Recyel Bin, then you will need some data recovery tools to help you recover the deleted files from hard disks.
No, when using the Norton 360 backup, files on the external HDD will not be deleted.
