There are 3rd party "undelete" programs that sometimes can recover files,
however:

If you have continued to use the hard drive on which the files were located,
the probability of recovery is greatly diminished.
If the files are of enough value, you could try a data recovery service such
as www.ontrack.com, but even they may not be successful if you have
continued to use the hard drive.you
