I was trying to free up some space on my file explorer and ended up accidentally deleting an entire drive. Now, I can't access anything and I think I've lost everything. Is there a way to recover it?

Before you do anything else, check your recycle bin just in case. If it's empty, avoid writing any new files to that drive—you don't want to overwrite anything that might be recoverable. Use a recovery tool like Disk Drill, and be prepared that you might have some corrupted files as well. Good luck!
Did you check your recycle bin? Sometimes things are still there, but if it’s empty, make sure not to mess with the drive further. You’ll want to get a recovery program installed on a different drive to try and restore your deleted files.
Don't panic! Files are often not completely gone. There are several utilities you can use to recover deleted files. Just a heads up though, if you’re using an SSD, keep in mind that files may be permanently deleted shortly after removal.
Sounds like you might have deleted something in the task manager instead. You can try typing 'explorer.exe' to restart the file explorer process or just reboot your computer.
Have you tried pressing Ctrl+Z? It can sometimes undo your last action in the file explorer and might help you recover what's lost.
