i was troubleshooting an issue with the desktop flashing a blue screen, it was frustrating to say the least but one of the things i did was delete everything form my desktop and put in the recycling bin. after that, i did a windows 8 refresh. did not know that the files would be moved/deleted so just wondering where would windows 8 place these after a refresh was done
Recycling bin emptied after windows 8 refresh?

Nowhere, they were permanently deleted by emptying the recycle bin.

Agreed, but the Recycle bin is a terrible place to store stuff. Much better to move it to a folder you create specifically for that task.
