I just accidentally deleted my 20 GB Mods folder

Is the mods folder in your recycle bin?

No. It's a long story, but it's gone.

Sorry to hear that. Looking on the bright side it can be fun to go shopping for new (and old) CC. ?

You could try do a system restore and it will recover everything.

depends on if a system restore is enabled windows does not always make them.

Oh, wow. I am sorry!

I always keep backup files of my mods and CC, tray and saves on an external drive.

I have a Mac.

Usually, when you delete your files from your hard drive without passing through the recycle bin (in PC it's done selecting the file/folder and pressing shift+delete on your keyboard) the data remains in the drive, but it gets out of the Operating system's file table hence you cannot access it via your OS, almost always it can be recovered using a recovery tool, if you didn't overwritted it with new data nor made a hard delete with an utility meant to do that task, there are several recovery tools for Mac and PC available on the web, just google for them, most of them even have a free version, my fave one is the old faithful Ontrack's EasyRecovery as it can recover data even from lost partitions and it's really user friendly.
