Deleted file didn't go to recycle bin

[Glorious Goglets]

I deleted a folder that had a 25gb game in it but it never showed up in the recycle bin and is still taking up hard drive space. I can't the folder anywhere else either.

Before I deleted the folder, I checked my OS (C) space and after I deleted the folder, I checked again and it was the same.

What size and type drive?
How full is it?

If it truly isn't in the recycle bin, reboot, and your space may probably magically reappear.
