The exact process to locate it will be OS dependent.
Assuming Windows, it will be something like:
Right Click on the desk top and a drop down list will appear. Select
The next window that appears will have a set of Tabs - on called - select that.
Thee will be a box within that saying one of which will be highlighted - note the exact file name.
Open Windows Explorer and start a search based on the file name - without any file type suffix and that should locate the file.
As for the deleted original - there are plenty of recovery tools which will locate the file, especially if you have only done a quick format - that just erases the file table and the recovery tools will scan the whole card and rebuild the files and table.

If using Windows 7 go into Control Panel - Personalization.
At the bottom is 'Desktop Background.' Click on that and it will show you a link to the picture.

You can still attempt to recover images from a formatted card, providing that particular part of the card has not yet been over written.
There is free software on the web, so why not have a go.
