How to UNDELETE!!

By doing the usual
'Close Window' shortcut of Apple+W I've managed to delete a critical WorkFlow
How would one go about recovering this Flow? I have Time Machine backups and historic backups but nothing too recent.
Surely a file has been binned somewhere I can reinstate?!

The flows are stored as backing XML files. On Windows, that's within %appadata% and on OSX, I believe it's in Program Data. You can restore the XML file from your backups. I don't think they are sent to the recycle bin when deleted from the designer.
I do this all the time. Honestly, if you set up Flow Auto Backup, you never have to worry about this again and can restore flows with 1 click.

Thanks Gabriel,
I've replaced the following :
• /Users/Studio/Library/Application Support/Enfocus/Switch Server/
backing/
LOST_WorkFLOW (Folder)
• /Users/Studio/Library/Application Support/Enfocus/Switch Server/
flows/
Flow_76.xml
• /Users/Studio/Library/Application Support/Enfocus/Switch Server/
ProblemFiles/
LOST_WorkFLOW (Folder)
But the Flow isn't turning up in Switch?
I've Quit and Restarted but nothing turns up

Scratch that, I think it
has reinstated the Flow!

(It was nestled away at the bottom of all the Flow List)
