Accidentally Deleted "My Pictures" Folder

One thing that you could try is to create a new user profile. Then all you
have to do is copy all of your USER data from the old profile to the new that
you just created. If you need help doing this you can refer to the KB article
of 811151. Or you can just copy this link into the address bar of Internet
Explorer. Then follow it step by step.

Did you look for it in the Trashcan? Did you try to restore it from
the Trashcan?
