    Hello,

    Thanks for for contacting Parallels Support Team.

    If you delete any Mac OS X file from the Windows desktop when the Mac OS X sharing is enabled, you will not be able to find it in Mac OS X Trash or Windows Recycle Bin. The file will be deleted from your computer permanently.

    Do you have a recent backup copy of the files? or a recent snapshot of the VM after you copied the files from the MAC to the Windows virtual machine?

    Thanks

    Thank You for your reply; I didn't delete any files, only quit the sharing between the home screens.
    I know the files are there somewhere probably, I don't know how to find them.
