what do you mean by not connecting the drive? it’s auto-mounted on startup. sadly i also used dolphin multiple times because i didn’t believe it was deleted…
Turn off your computer, unplug the drive, and leave it like that, do not plug it back in. As long as the drive is physically unplugged, the data on it should be safe.
The reverse is also true: every second this drive remains mounted and the computer is running, the chances of getting your data back get lower and lower.
It is quite possible that caused some data corruption. What is done is done, don’t do it any more.
Physically remove the drive from the computer and take it to a data recovery professional. If you cannot remove the drive (for example, you’re using a laptop which is not easy to open), take the entire computer to a data recovery professional.
