No where, actually. It simply tells the hard drive that it's safe to write over the sector of the disc that it used to be on.

If you want it totally gone, you'll have to delete it using a shredder program.

There is no rule that the deleted file shud go into the recycle bin. By pressing Shift+Del, you can delete a file.
Normally we feel that the file is deleted but it is not. Here is the procedure i know.
File are put on the disk and the address of the file is put in tables. If there is nothing on a table, it feels that there is no data present there. So a delete operation only deletes the reference(address) of the file. The data lives there itself.

Recycle bin is actually your undelete command option. In old golden days of DOS when you delete any information from media it was having a option to return back you information by undelete command. Once you delete it from recycle bin it is not erasing or deleting the information but giving the option to NTFS or FAT32 system to re-write new information on that sector of media. With special software you can re-generate the data which you delete from recycle bin.

Basically when you delete any files it does not go anywhere it remains in your computer.It remains in one folder but that folders size dosent counts your total size of disk.
A professional enginner can bring everything back.atleast 90% stuffs you deleted from your PC.Dont ask me more coz if i had more knowledge i would be a professional;)
