    As you can see in left hand side, I deleted those useful handy links to browse easily. How do I get those back?
    I can think of one way, using Recuva, but I'm sure it's more simple than that.

    I emptied it. Lol.

    EDIT: Also, when I right click to "restore favorite links" nothing happens.

    Oh I see... I thought you meant your IE favorites... but those are the Windows Explorer favorites.

    On mine it's just a directory called "Links" under my home dir., with some shortcuts to other folders. So try re-creating a directory called "Links" and create some shortcuts to folders in there.

    Yup. Exactly what I did. Created a new folder "Links", but instead of creating shortcuts, I just restored the default ones.
