Windows 10: Files being deleted without warning and no backup anywhere.

Recently a family member was completing coursework for a given subject when the last time they logged on, after an update, their entire coursework folder was deleted from their documents, as well as the onedrive and all recycle bins. after spending a considerable amount of time trying to restore files there is no answer in sight. it appears they were deleted the day before the issue occurred, but the documents folder states that the last time anything was deleted was in July. If anyone has any solution to this issue i would be grateful as not even the onedrive vault now contains anything nor any of the bins.

How do I delete registry files?

type in regedit in the search box and press enter. Then from here on, DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING UNLESS U KNOW WHAT UR DOING!! Go to Hkey_Local_Machine > Software > Then a list of program registry keys will pop up, delete anything that is uninstalled. Make sure u backup the keys unless something goes wrong. To backup, you do: Select a group of keys on the left pane > Right click > Export > name it "whatever.reg" > save it. To import the backup, click the reg file and click "merge"
