Important Files have disappeared

rccordell
Hello, I got on my computer this morning and found that a folder from Zotero library has disappeared, along with all the citations in it, which are related to a very important and timely research project. Might there be backups on the Zotero servers if I use the cloud storage (which I do)? Am hoping I might roll back to the version of my library from last week, for instance, if that folder is there. I'm in a pretty desperate way this morning--help!

    The files seem to have been in my trash. Possibly my mistake. Unclear whether they can be restored back to their original folders, but at least I can get them back into the library.

    Yes, if you select them all and restore them to the library they'll be restored back to the same collections.

    Or, well, if you deleted the collection, then that won't be the case.

    To restore a delete collection, you can restore from the last automatic backup.
