Asked By StarrySky27 On

Hey everyone, I really messed up and accidentally deleted a folder on our remote server where the main.py file was stored, along with some other important subfolders. Unfortunately, the only thing I can restore is my local working files through local history. Is there any way to recover the deleted folder from the server?

Have you tried contacting your backup or restore team? They might have a way to retrieve deleted files from their backups.

Honestly, if there’s no version control in place, it could be a sign of some serious issues at your company. Ideally, you’d have someone with a local copy or at least a backup available. Don't be too hard on yourself if you can't recover it; this kind of oversight can often reflect broader organizational problems.

While this may not help you right now, you seriously need to start using version control, like Git. It’s the industry standard! You can host repositories on sites like GitHub for free, which makes collaboration easier and protects you from mistakes like deleting important files. Just remember to commit your changes often!

First off, don’t panic! I recommend you admit your mistake and ask your team for help instead of trying to fix it by yourself. Ideally, your files should have been under version control, which would make it easier to recover them. If the team didn't have that set up, it might be more complicated. Just keep that in mind for next time!

Is it a Windows or Linux server? If it’s Windows and there hasn’t been too much activity since you deleted it, you might be able to use Windows File Recovery. Just make sure to act fast, as the longer you wait, the more likely it is that your data could get overwritten!
