How do I get back deleted Tab Page

I have a tab control with 6 tabs. I had one called TPY, which I deleted (on
purpose). I did create a backup of the entire directory first. Now I want
to restore it, but am unable to do so.

What I did was to open the current solution and the old (backup) solution,
and then copy the Tab Page from the backup and paste it into the current
one. However, that appears to create all the code in the designer, but it
won't show the tab. I then tried adding a new tab page, and naming it TPY,
but it does not let me do that saying it already exists.

Any help is appreciated...

Go to solution explorer
Look in top of that if you see the icon show all files (otherwise take
another item)
Set it to show all files
Then open your yourprogram.languages.vb file
Search for that to your tabpage.
Probably it is not added to the controls.
(that is mostly below in the code)
