You don't say how it was deleted. One ofthese might work.

First place to look is the RECYCLE folder. If not there, it's possible you might have inadvertently moved it. Try this:
START : FIND : FILES or FOLDERS
The FIND dialog opens.
In the Named: field type a portion of one of the missing file names.
In the Look in: field use the dropdown to look in All Local Hard Drives
If the restults then shows the missing file in the list, go to that directory and see if the otehrs are there as well.

The main folder holds the contents of the sub-folder,so when you deleted the sub-folder which is the contents,deleting the sub-folder si deleting the contents of the folder,check the recycle bin if you have not emptied and restore.
Main Folder=Title of Contents
Sub-Folder=Contents

I think you mean that after deleting, you tried going BACK. This often happens. To prevent it from happening, just change your clicking of BACK to UP ONE LEVEL.
