as long as you didn't format your computer, then you still have your files. otherwise, you won't.

When you boot to windows you will get to a screen that asks you for a repair. A repair will not erase your data. You can also do a reinstall which will not lose your data as long as you do NOT remove the partition. The format only appears if you have removed your partition, so dont remove it.
