    Hi, and welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    By default, the local OneDrive folder does not contain a copy of your computer's files. It is where your original files reside when the PC Folder Backup is enabled in the Manage Backup settings.

    I suggest you check the recycle bin at onedrive.com and the PC's recycle bin for your deleted files. The remainder of your files need to be recovered from your hard drive. I suggest file recovery software or a professional file recovery service.

    For the best account support, you should Email the OneDrive support team.

    Sorry, I don't have better news.

    Craig
