Combofix Deleted all Personal Files - docs, pics, music, desktop, etc | MajorGeeks.Com Support Forums

I've got a problem where combofix deleted alot of personal data and hopefully an expert can help.

Computer was infected with one of the many rogue antiviruses, which cleaned off nicely with combination of Malwarebytes, Avira, spybot and Microsoft Securitiy essentials. But there was a strange Google redirect causing all search result links were redirected to other websites.

I know I should have asked before running combofix, but I've run it in the past without issues. Now I understand why I should have an expert helping with combo fix. I ran it and it fixed the Google result redirect problem, but it deleted almost all of the documents, pictures, music and god knows what else. I noticed a directory on the root hard drive, found the data was place there with a .vir extension on it.

Question is, how do I get that data back?
