  1. They're gone, all that's left is the memory.


  2. When you use search, the computer is looking through a list of indexes it automatically makes when the computer is idle. So it takes a while for the computer to notice that the file is gone and refresh it`s index.

    That`s why when you try to get into the file, it points to where the file used to be, but obviously you have already deleted it and it`s not on your hard drive or where ever you put it, so it can`t access it.

    Anyway, the file is already gone for good.

  3. Install http://ccleaner.com

    Run the Registry scan and fix all issues but repeat this until nothing is detected.

    Run the Cleaner scan and remove all it finds

    Run this daily.

  4. Restart your Computer Once.

    If doesn't work try:

    Right click on your Driver C:\ Proprieties > Tools > Click on Check Now

    Select both the options then - press Start

    This will ask you select "yes" OK - OK

    Again Restart your Computer
