The best you can do is use an undeleter tool, depending on the deletion settings:

I can't make any promises for your case, but that last time I had to restore deleted files the only tool that worked was GetDataBack, while none of the popular free tools found any data.

The ony free tool that I have good experience with is Testdisk + PhotoRec from CGsecurity.
