Default Huh? Wheres my HD Space?

Ok recently I did a 'System Restore' Thing on my computer.

I'm not familiar with it but it appears that windows has re-installed, it took forever.

But I still only have 130/250GB space left.

where's all my files that I used to have?

And it is supposed to be used to go back to a formerly specified back up file. If you didn't do that, then you lose some stuff. So far as I know.

Maybe re-call them and see if it helps? Can't do any harm, right?
