Near panic situation.
Downloaded some pictures from my camera to the My Pictures folder, sub
folder. Went to send these pictures to a friend and could not find them,
specified folder was empty, did a search using pictures music video search
with picture number and .JPG extension with no results.By mistake some how I
deleted these pictures and they were in the recycle bin. Why didn't search
find these in the recycle bin, OS WINXP SP2. It was just pure luck that had
me look in the recycle bin and I remember not all items are viewable in the
recycle unless you restore them, but in this case they appeared as the
pictures I was looking for. Since I could look at pictures in the recycle
your would thing that it's a folder in windows search would have found
them?.

Did you specify in the search to look in "system folders" and "hidden files
and folders"? if not then they are in advance options of the search bar.
