but on another machine , occasionally I had a warning that vista was
running out of space, actually windows had plenty space but the backup
had very little space.

what do you call "the backup"?

So one day, vista left me and took all the files
with her.

that is? vista don't boot or you can't see the files from openSUSE?

There are some files, that I need to recover. I looked at gparted but
have no clue as what to do. If I would increase the recovery partition
would vista spring to life again?

?? AFAIK the recovery partition is only a copy of the installer,
allowing to recover the computer on it's initial state (losing all the
new stuff), nothing you should ever write to.
