Hopefully someone can help. Need to know how to restore items deleted from my recycle bin. Two months ago I realized the recycle bin empties on it's own. I think by accident I deleted a Photo folder?
Thanks

Here is some information from How to Geeks https://www.howtogeek.com/169344/how-to-recover-a-deleted-file-the-ultim...
The main take away from that, and any article on data recovery is that if you have been using your computer since the file(s) were deleted, chances are you have overwritten some or all of them already. Making them impossible to recover.
The best protection is if you have a backup of these files stored on another device.

All: Performing a system restore to a date before the suspected deletion date should bring back the folder. Conversely, any data / programs / e-mail etc added to the computer AFTER that date will be lost. Either way as Peterweb explained backup your data before doing the restore.
Cheers
