I accidentally deleted a notebook containing a very important note. I cannot recover it back nor can i find it...! What do i do?? 

I tried to contact evernote but for some reason i cannot find their email or contact. I dont know any technical stuff so i do not understand what they put on their web page nor why it is so hard to contact them and to get one note back? 

Is there a way to fix this?

OK, so when you deleted the notebook, the notes in that notebook should have been placed in the Trash "notebook". Select the Trash icon, and use Ctrl+F7 to go to a list view of the notes in Trach. Note the Location column, and click on it to sort by "Location" (er, Notebook). Select all of the notes that have a Location that's the same as your deleted notebook, and right click on them, and select "Restore Notes". Your notebook should be back as it was.

I have tried finding it in trash but the note was under a notebook i didnt create. It was under something that indicated its not synced or something? I deleted it because i thought it was a copy of the one i had in my actual notebook. But it was the note itself that was moved there.. 

Is there another way to find out where it went?

Have you checked Evernote Web? If you haven't synced your Evernote Windows app then the note can be there.

Wait, you deleted a notebook that you didn't create? I didn't know that you could do that. I do know that if you delete a note from a notebook that's in someone else's account, then the note winds up in their Trash, not yours. So I guess you'd need to get it from the original notebook owner.

I cant find it on evernote web either... its not that its a note book i didnt create,  but its like a tab that just appeared out of nowhere and that note was the only thing inside.

Is there a way to track the history of my actions and then restore it through there?

A similar thing happened to me all through evernote web. I accidentally deleted a notebook and all the notes in the notebook are gone. They are not in Trash.

This is a huge flaw. specially for a premium account. Is there any way I can recover my notes?

Update: this is the workaround that I discovered. I switched to older version of evernote GUI and there they were! in the trash! This must a be a bug because reload the new GUI web did not show me the lost notes. I would have also liked the notebook itself to be in the trash
