Recovering Screen shots

Is there anyway to recover screen shots that were deleted when re-installing maple?

Thanks in advance.

@BobR: Alright, thanks a lot. My screenshots were not deleted manually; they were deleted when re-installing maple. I'll take a look at Recuva and see I can do haha.

Very unlikely.

It depends on how the screenshots were deleted and whether or not the disk sectors containing the screenshots have been overwritten yet.
If they were deleted normally, they might still be in your Recycle Bin and could be restored from there.

Otherwise, you might be able to use a file recovery program like "Recuva" to find them on the disk (Google the name for the download link), but it's a long shot and not the easiest thing to do.
