    I accidentally deleted files I copied to a USB drive. I dragged and dropped them to the USB drive and somehow it prompted and asked if I wanted to permanently delete files I thought it was asking something else to make sure they were on the drive and hit Yes. Is there anyway to get these files back? I have already restored to the morning before but the computer dis not finish the process and said restart restarting but did not .
