You're very welcome.

 

Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to help you with that problem.

 

I always make periodic backups by copying and pasting my files, photos and music onto a portable hard drive.

 

There may be some free software you can use to recover lost files if you do a search....such as this one.

 

Download Recuva | Recover deleted files, free! (ccleaner.com)
