    Please provide some more detail on this problem.

    What files were deleted, is it the AutoCAD program files that were deleted or files you have created with the AutoCAD software?

    If it is the AutoCAD program files that were deleted, have you tried reinstalling AutoCAD from the AutoDesk website.

    If it is files that you created, where were the files stored on your PC, and do you use any cloud service like OneDrive to sync your files online.

    If the Autodesk program files were deleted, Windows cannot run AutoCAD until those files are restored or the app is repaired/reinstalled. Try these steps on Windows 11:

    1. Try to repair the app from Settings
      1. Select Start > Settings > Apps > Installed apps.
      2. Find the Autodesk/AutoCAD entry.
      3. Select the More icon next to it > Advanced options (if available).
      4. Select Repair. If that does not work or is not available, select Reset.
    2. Try to repair from Control Panel
      1. In the taskbar search box, type control panel and open Control Panel.
      2. Go to Programs > Programs and Features.
      3. Right‑click the Autodesk/AutoCAD program.
      4. Select Repair. If Repair is not available, select Change and follow the on‑screen repair options.
    3. If repair fails, reinstall AutoCAD If Windows reports missing or deleted program files and repair does not fix it, uninstall AutoCAD from Settings > Apps or Control Panel > Programs and Features, then reinstall it using the original Autodesk installer or media.
    4. If personal project files are missing If DWG or other project files were also deleted:
      • First, check the Recycle Bin.
      • If they are not there and no backup exists, use Windows File Recovery from Microsoft Store to try to recover deleted files from the local drive. Use it as soon as possible and avoid using the PC heavily, because new data can overwrite deleted files.

    If none of these steps restore the Autodesk program, a full reinstall of the Autodesk software is required.
