Hi, Once the file vanishes from the recycle bin, its lost from any normal means of retrieval. I would have to dig, but, I veaguely remember an unerase program that you can do to make the file appear for windows to see. Actually, in windows, the file's inode(its information) is available even after a delete. The operating system markes it as free space and the next time a file space is needed, it is over-written. If it hasn't been too long since you deleted it, it may be retrievable by that unerase program. Try googling "unerase file" and see if there is a program available.

It sounds as if you are trying to set the computer to a prior restore point. Simply changing the date back to a prior won't fix this. In fact, even setting it back to a prior restore point mightnot solve the lost book from the recycle bin either, but others might know more than I on that one. Good luck.
