Use either FinalData, R-Studio or Runtime GetDataBack to recover the data on your flash drive. As long as you haven't copied any files to it since then the files should be recoverable. Also, the files you were copying from your flash drive in the first place should not have disappeared after you clicked Cancel. Did you try unplugging it then back in to make sure they didn't just vanish temporarily for some reason?
Either way, none of the software I mentioned is freeware but you should be able to run them under a trial period. They are the only programs I know of that will scan such a device thoroughly enough to give you results.

That's exactly the reason why I never "Cut and Paste". Always use "Copy"! After that you can delete the files as you please.
