Fix

Unless you can perform an authoritative Active Directory (AD) restore from a tape backup, you cannot restore user accounts that have been deleted from the Recycle Bin (or Groups, Contacts and Computers for DRA 8.0 and later).  Once you delete an object in the Recycle Bin it is permanently deleted from AD.
