    Accidentally I deleted some files from my laptop ( shift + delete ).

    Then by means of System restore I restored my system to d previous date. After restoration ,
    I got the Folder which was containing the files, but I did not get the files.

    System Restore does not restore data files. It restores system settings only. It works by taking a snapshot of the Registry at a point in time to restore it.

    If you deleted files, then you need to restore them from a backup. If you don't have a backup and the files are no longer in the Recycle Bin, they are gone.
