When you delete a file in Perforce, it creates a "deleted" revision, but the archive file is still there.

In the Perforce P4V GUI in the depot veiw, there is a filter symbol on top of the explore pane .

Click on this and select "Show Deleted Depot Files".

Find the file you want to restore and right-click on it. Select "Rollback..." and revert it to the previous revision of that file (before it was deleted.)

By default it will create a new changelist, be sure to select the one you want if you already have one.

On the command line: p4 sync //depot/folder/subfolder/filename@changelist

You can use either the command line or the GUI, from the command line p4 sync -f forces the files to be resynchronized. For more information see the Perforce Knowledge Base.
