Here's the Recuva usage guide:
https://www.ccleaner.com/docs/recuva/using-recuva
If that AVG program only deleted the startup routine of the program you're wishing to restore (and not the actual program itself) you may be able to re-enable it using:
* Older Windows OSes: MSConfig by going to: <strong>Start</strong> > <strong>Run</strong> > Type In: <strong>msconfig</strong> > Go into the <strong>Startup</strong> tab
* Windows 10: Open <strong>Task Manager</strong> and go into the <strong>Startup</strong> tab.

Sometimes (not always) those types of utility programs have an undo feature and for obvious reasons since they could create and issue. So if you still have it installed see if it contains an undo feature so that you can more easily reinstate the startup of your program.
Hi Andavari,
thank you for your second reply about my program ill see how i go with your information. Also i cannot drag a file or choose a file as i have too many files about CCleaner i might not have the right 1 that you are looking for and also i might not have the right year it could take me weeks and more time wasting to find the appropriate file if it is in files or in downloads.
bye Gary.
