I accidentally deleted a folder in a desktop which I came to know was very useful to me. I searched in recycle Bin but could not find and I came to know the solution for the problem that I want to share now.
1. First all open command prompt and write this line
vssadmin List Shadows
Hit enter. This will give the list of shadows with the previous date.
![]()
2. Check the date and time where you can get the deleted file
3. Copy the Shadow Copy Volume
If you get problem with copying the file then right-click on the command prompt and click mark
after that drag and seletc the the content of Shadow Copy Volume:
right click for copying
![]()
right click and click mark
![]()
Select all the code of Shadow copy service
3. Now in new line of command prompt type
mklink /d c:\shadow [and right cleick and paste link]
backslash is a must
please see in image for reference
![]()
enter mklink /d c:\shadow and right click and paste and put a backslash(\) and hit enter
![]()
4. Now a new file is created in c: drive. go to the file and you will get desktop inside users your user name and desktop. The path is as follow
C:\shadow\Users\Your_user_name\Desktop
![]()
5. Now you can copy and paste the deleted file and store safely
