Hey 1br4h1m, sorry to hear about that! 

 

You mentioned that you started a backup. Just to make sure we're on the same page: are you referring to our Backup feature? 

 

If not, would you be able to clarify the steps that you followed on your end? Also, have you checked both your deleted files page, and events page? 

 

If I were you, I'd also take a look at my sharing tab. 

 

Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
