Accidentally moved files to trash

HI,

I have accidentally moved the following files to my trash can. I haven't emptied the trash can so they can still moved to the correct place. I'm just not sure where they go! Can anyone help me please?

The file names are as follows:

com.apple%2000-06-55-132.spotlight/

com.apple.metadata.SpotlightNetHelper/

com.apple.metadata.SpotlightNetHelper.plist

com.apple.Spotlight/

com.apple.Spotlight.counts.V3

com.apple.Spotlight.plist

com.apple.spotlight.Shortcuts

Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you.

Control-click each individual one and choose Put Back.

Wish I could, I had many things I need to clear from trash so I made a folder on my desktop and moved them into there. So the put back option is no longer available.

Well I was going to suggest putting it back in the trash then select "put back", but that would probably only put it back to the last location....the desktop. You might be stuck researching where those belong and put them back manually.
