Much more helpful IMO than the accepted answer. The only things I would add to this answer to improve it slightly are (1) to reiterate the instructions in some other answers that one should power down the affected computer as soon as one realizes that the files were mistakenly deleted, and (2) to boot from a liveCD or liveUSB OS like Kali Linux which includes the extundelete utility (I found that many other liveCDs like Debian Jessie do not include this utility on their install media).
