Hi, Tamaraki,

Sorry to hear you're experiencing this issue.

You will need to use a third-party data recovery software like Recuva, GetDataBack, EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard to try to recover your files. Some softwares are free and others are paid, you will need to check which one is the best option to recover your files.

You can see at this link a list of some free data recovery tools.

You need to keep in might that the recovery of the deleted folder is time sensitive. If you keep using your SSD the sectors where the deleted data was saved will be replaced with the new data making the recovery harder and some files will impossible to be recovered.

Unfortunately, free data recovery tools are limited. I have had good results recovering data with the paid version of the GetDataBack.
