You lost all the files and folders that were there. If You want to
create Desktop folder back open terminal and type :
mkdir /home/<yourusername>/Desktop

sure there is, it is just a lot of work (and in this case obviously
unneccesary)
as long as you didn’t write lots of data over the alledgedly removed
files you could try and get them back.

if it were just the case of mistakingly removing the default opensuse
dekstop folder one could also easily restore this by copying the Desktop
folder with initial contents back from the skeleton user, used when
adding new users to the system.

This is NOT necessary here it was just the desktop folder view that was
closed

I noticed that in 11.0 … If you delete something off a hard drive using
opensuse, then log onto windows and access the same hard drive. Theres a
.Trash something folder with all the stuff you delete in it…
Just thought I would jot that down…
