| I don't get the question. Did you actually empty out the recycle bin after? If it's still on your comp then you'll be able to to find it with the windows search or restore it by going into your recycle bin... and if not download it, cause it guano.
normally notepad and calc are installed to two different default directories, main drive:/program files/accesories/notepad or windows/system32/notepad |

| You can't delete those "key" windows things, they'll just automatically re-appear if you do manage to get rid of them... It's kist the shortcuts that got deleted.. |

| in which case look in one of those two directories and it should be there, probably in both |

| I think she did already but not everybody makes their shortcuts that way, so to the less windows savy it can look confusing |
|

| you can always just type "notepad" or "calc" in the run window. |
