When this happens, the first place you should check is the Recycle Bin. If you can't find your file in the Trash, follow the other methods explained in this article. And, if that doesn't work, consider bringing out the big guns by making use of advanced data recovery software such as Wondershare Recoverit. That's how to recover deleted files on Windows 7. Have you ever wondered about the chance of recovery of deleted files? Well, three scenarios determine if you can recover a deleted file in Windows 7.
Files in the recycle bin are the easiest to recover. You simply need to go to the Trash and restore the files by right-clicking and selecting Restore. When the Recycle Bin is emptied, the recovery process becomes much more difficult because while the file is still on the disk, its reference has been deleted and the computer cannot read it.
In such a situation you have to use a specialized data recovery program such as Wondershare Recoverit to recover files from Windows 7. When you have overwritten the deleted file's former location by saving other files in that location, the process becomes even more difficult.
However, tools like Wondershare Recoverit can recover files in Windows 7 even when the file's former location has been overwritten. When a file is deleted, it first goes to the Recycle Bin where it resides until the bin is emptied. When the bin is emptied the file reference is removed. So the computer can no longer read the file. However, the file is still on the disk. Space the file formally occupied is released for use and other data can be overwritten. Even when overwritten, there are still fragments of the file that reside on the disk.
In this state, file recovery in Windows 7 is only possible using specialized data recovery software. Keep reading for more details.

I am sorry, I unfortunately need more detailed step-by-step information. I don't understand which folders or files you are talking about -- please specify the file paths.
I am afraid to try to do things without understanding fully. Each of these has more subfolders. I looked into both folders with long names and "Troubleshooting Information" is not under either Help menu. I am using the Windows Classic folders, not Aero. However "about:support" is already in its url bar. Copy places. And then I closed Firefox in the normal way , and when I opened it again, my history was all deleted again! But this time my bookmarks were not deleted.
Why is Firefox automatically deleting all my History? In my options I have it set to "remember my browsing and download history". Is it because before closing I restored my bookmarks from a more recent backup? But why would restoring a bookmark backup delete all my history? I don't know the answers to your questions. It's not what I would expect to happen. Other users of the bookmark restore feature haven't reported losing all their history. And I guess you didn't lose all your history immediately after restoring bookmarks, but either at shutdown, while Firefox was closed or at the next startup.
Do you have any history-related add-ons? Do you have any utility or cleaning programs that touch browser data? I did not shut down or restart my computer in between. All I did was close Firefox and open it again But I will have to be able to shut down my computer again eventually, of course. I do not have Ccleaner or Advance SystemCare. My only addons are an appearance one named Space, NoScript, and AddblockPlus, which have no reason to touch my history.
Searching "clean" only turns up a utility called Disk Cleanup. I tried the whole procedure again, without doing any bookmark restoration. The same thing happened again. When I first opened Firefox immediately after copying places. But when I closed Firefox using the upper right hand X and then immediately opened it again, my history was all erased again.
Should I try again, and copy also the "journaling files" from the old profile folder? Both the ones you named are in that copy. I don't think you need to copy the journaling files but I've never tested whether that makes any difference.
If there is a setting causing this, it should not be a factor in a new profile, so you could try testing that. This will create a new semi-randomly-named folder also under. Click the Create a New Profile button, then click Next. Can someone please tell me how to recover and view internet files, cookies, browsing history and media files viewed in windows media that were deleted from my laptop? Or where they are stored, like in a hidden file and how I can gain access to the information that was deleted?
