Sometimes the history is not deleted completely .. in WindowsXP ..
So follow that in safe mode and you can remove the History or your working in windows.

there are lots of softwares to recover deleted files. the process is a little time consuming since it has to first scan the entire hdd but if the file has been recently deleted, it can be recovered. this is bec. when u delete a file, it only gets invisible for the user but actually remains on the hdd until that space is reqd by some other data. pls note recovering deleted files IS IN NO WAY HARMFUL TO THE PC NOR CAN IT CAUSE ANY DAMAGE

you can recover the data (never 100 %) that has just been normally deleted,if it has been overwritten by some other data then there is no chance.
