Recover recently deleted files.

How do I do this? I want to retain the original hierarchy files and folders also.
Testdisk and Ddrescue. You'll need free space on another disk to recover the files to.

Part of Testdisk, Photorec is good for finding deleted photos.

Try booting from a copy of SystemRescueCD. It should have Testdisk included.
ddrescue is too low level. TestDisk recovers partitions, not files. PhotoRec is appropriate. It started as a tool to recover deleted pictures but it was greatly extended and can now recover many different types of files. That said, the file hierarchy and the file names are lost. I am not certain those pieces of information can be recovered. Maybe for some specific filesystems...
thanks guys decided to restore a backup from a month ago hopefully didn't loose anything important. I deleted all my files by accident because the desktop showed all my folders and files in home so thought I did the file transfer in wrong folder. I was using gnome shell 3 just to let you know. I really wasn't using my computer much so probably didn't loose anything important. Now I will be using my computer more often now since the wifi works again!!! :)
Just for your information, I have used extundelete http://extundelete.sourceforge.net/ successfully in the past.
