It goes to the Recycle Bin, of course. Then if you delete it the second time (from the Bin), it gets deleted as if you'd deleted it in DOS - which is to say it gets marked as deleted; you can restore it if you don't overwrite it first, and you need to supply the first letter of the file name.

How can be sure that a program is completely deleted from your hard-drive on my computer I want to reinstall this program but it says it already installed i thought i deleted it apparently i did not?

You should properly uninstall the program. 1st go to Control Panel and select Add or Remove Programs. Uninstall the program you wanted to uninstall. After that you can then manually remove the remaining files of the program in your hard disk commonly located at the folder Program Files in Drive C. Finally try to reinstall the program you wish to install.


Where do deleted files in a computer go?

By default in windows XP when a user deletes files they go into the recycle bin where they reside until they are bumped out by other files the user deletes later. At which point they are actually deleted. However when a file is deleted, the data still resides on the hard disk. Basically all the file system does is remove the file from its table of contents which leaves that dataspace open for use in the future whenever new files are written. The actual data will remain until that same space is allocated to another file & thus over-written. This is done for the sake of performance, as otherwise when you deleted a large file, it would take just as long to delete it as it did to write it. As it is, file deletion is near instantaneous. There are utilities availble which can go through and recover and/or remove this hidden data. Recovering files in this manner is very hit or miss, many times the files will be corrupted or incomplete as most OS's are near constantly reading and writing to the hard drive, it is very likely -some- of the data will have been over-written.


How can one recover files that were accidentally deleted from one's hard drive?

Go to the "Recycle Bin" find the name of the file, click on it, and hit reopen. +++ Though if you've deleted it a second time, from 'Recycle' (what a silly name!) you'd need recovery software to find it before it's over-written.
