Hello and welcome to Geeks to Go.

When you delete the history, it is deleted permanently. I've never heard of anything that could restore your history.

However...every single website you've ever visited is saved on your computer...unless you clean it out. You could use a Windows search to search for any file that was created on the day you visited that site. You should be able to find some HTMLs, pictures, etc. that belong to that site. If you open the HTML, the address will point to the HTML on your computer, but once you start surfing the site, the address will have the name of that site.
