I was cleaning out my desktop and put some of my .txt files i had 2 into recycle bin. And then i emptied the bin and 2 hrs later i relise i deleted them!! So one of em wasn't that important but the other had valuable information of all my logins for games.. I've tried lots of recovery programs but none can find it. Anyone give me some suggestion on what to do or just tell me straight up its lost :(?

I have only used it a little bit, and it was a while ago. I know there is a way to do a much quicker scan, which I know I was able to do by searching for the file based on its name or something. The deep scan like that should be much more accurate and successful, but you may want to play around with some of the other methods first. If you don't have luck with that, then I'd suggest you go back and try something like the one your doing over night.
