It depends on which version of Vista you are using and which folder your
documents were located in?

Go to the folder where the old documents were located and right click that
folder. From the pop-up menu, select Properties and then the Previous
Versions Tab. If there are backed up copies of that folder, they will be
listed there. Select one that has a date prior to the time the documents
were deleted and click the Restore Button.
