Documents Replaced With Program Files?!

Interweb,

I recently purchased Honestech's VHS to DVD 7.0 Software. When installing the software I chose to put the program files in my documents not thinking it would disrupt the files already in there. Turns out it wiped out my entire documents and I'm left with the program files from the VHS to DVD Software.

Does anyone know where these documents may be?

I've tried a few document recovery software (Recuva etc.) but it's all a bit complicated for someone with little computer knowledge. I've also tried System Restore to a few days ago but because the Program Files are IN my documents and your documents aren't affected by system restore then I'm a bit stuck.

If anyone has a solution it would be greatly appreciated as I have some important university work on there that I hadn't gotten round to backing up.

All the best
