I made an incredible error using my eclipse....when i delete a project

the project in the workspace but mantain the source on my file system in
the dir C:\Document and Settings\XXX\workspace ....but for error I chek
the optio that delete even on the file system....is there a possibility to
recover my source??? because i have just see that there's not in my Trash
like when delete a file and it goes in the Trash.

I know that probably this is impossible but i need to recover my
source!!!!

Plese help if possible.

Mattia,

It really deletes it from the file system and it's all gone. I did a
horrible thing like this once years ago (not with Eclipse) and hunted
the internet for an "undelete utility" which ultimately helped me
recover most of the contents I'd deleted. Just be careful what you do
with the machine so you don't lose the bits and pieces that might be
lurking on the disk... Of course such horrible events should prompt you
to export your hard work to a zip file and back it up. Hindsight is
such an annoying thing...
