Hi @pc_user3,

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your laptop!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

Try these steps:

1. Check the Recycle Bin

First, check if the files are in the Recycle Bin:

• Open the Recycle Bin from the desktop or using the search bar.
• Look for the deleted files and folders. If found, right-click and select Restore.

2. File History

If you have File History enabled, you might be able to recover the deleted files:

• Go to Settings > Update & Security > Backup.
• Select More options > Restore files from a current backup.
• Navigate to the folder that contained the deleted files to restore them.

3. Previous Versions

Windows creates restore points periodically which can include previous versions of files:

• Right-click on the folder where files were deleted and select Properties.
• Go to the Previous Versions tab.
• Select a version from the list and use Restore.

4. HP Recovery Manager

Many HP laptops come with HP Recovery Manager:

• Search for HP Recovery Manager in the Start menu.
• Follow the prompts to recover your files if the option is available.

5. Data Recovery Software

If the above methods don't work, data recovery software can help:

• Use a reliable data recovery tool such as Recuva, EaseUS Data Recovery, or Disk Drill.
• Install and run the software to scan your drive for deleted files.
• Follow the prompts to recover your files.

I hope this helps.
