I am running windows 10 in Virtual Box, my OS is ubuntu 16.04. I need to restore files deleted in the VB windows. I have booted VB using a live ubuntu 16.04 cd and run fdisk but this only shows dev/loop.

Can someone brighter than me explain what to do to get the live cd to 'see' the windows files ?

Thanks

There are a variety of free file recovery programs for Windows, you could try your luck and install one on the Windows VM. Although if you have used the VM frequently since the deletion of said files and done things like install games or apps or moved large amounts of data there is a chance that part of the files you are looking for have been over written. But like I said you can install or even get a portable version of recovery software to attempt to get them back.
