Hours of work deleted after my computer got a virus

What I’m trying to do

My computer got a bug and all my stuff reset. My obsidian won't show me files even in my recovery that I spent hours on for a book. I'm wondering how to fix it and recover my files when they show up no where not even version history or recovery files.

Things I have tried

Very sorry to hear that happened. Do you not keep backups?

Can you please include a bit more information? Because all you say is “all my stuff reset”. Did the virus wipe out your files? Or did an anti-virus program wipe out files that had been infected? What OS? What antivirus was involved, if any?

When you say “in my recovery” what are you referring to? The File Recovery plugin in Obsidian, or anything else? Does “version history” mean Obsidian Sync, or something else? I highly doubt that Obsidian deleted anything.

If a virus corrupted the data that included your File Recovery snapshots, then there might not be anything you can do except restore from safe backups that you kept somewhere. Or if you are using a cloud sync tool, from a device that hasn’t synced the destruction yet. (Sync tools are not backup.)
