I don't use Flash much.  Insert your USB drive.  Go into Recyclle Bin on the 
Desktop, pressing r until you find it and hit enter.  now, press alt-v then 
I, and then arrow to "original location".  You will now see a list of your 
deleted folders and files.  Restore those you want to restore.

Alternatively, if you don't get back what you lost, bring your memory stick 
to a tech shop and ask them if they can recover the deleted files on it.

Hi Flor and Eleanor,

Thanks for the messages sent in.

Flor could you talk me through what to do in Recycle Bin.  I went in here
already but was unsure of what to do and didn't want to do any more damage.

I found a list of folders, e.g. Local Disks Folders, My Computer, etc.  I
was going to enter in here on My Computer, then go into my pen drive, but
was unsure of where to go then.  I may not even have been right going this
far.

Sorry, but what are the flash memory tools?  Do you need certain software on
your computer for this?

Regards
Roslyn
