So I've been downloading this torrent for 3 days now, its 180GB and instead of pause I somehow clicked delete torrent+data. The data and torrent is in the recycle bin still. How do I get them back to utorrent so it continues downloading? Is there maybe a way to access Recycle Bin without double-clicking it? I cant go to the Recycle Bin and just clicked Restore All Files because its just loading infinitely.

There are two likely explanations:
You have inadvertently modified the remove setting as Oliver said. Right-click the Remove button in the toolbar and set it to just
Remove:
You have inadvertently modified the completed-torrent directory (maybe you set it to the temp folder or another drive):
You can try to retrieve the torrent file from here if using Windows: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\uTorrent
Otherwise you can create a new torrent using "create torrent" under File menu, then selecting the downloaded torrent folder you have on your computer. However, this new torrent will not be treated as the same torrent you downloaded before.
Best Answer
Torrenting is an excellent way of recovering data in an inconsistent state. Move the folder back to the default download folder. Get the .torrent file again and open it in the app you use. It will verify the files that are successfully downloaded and continue downloading the rest. You might have trouble with the partially downloaded files - mine are set to a temp extension so that it's easy to tell them apart from finished files.
