Accidents Happen but what about after?

I recently had a problem with my gameplay in TS4, all I wanted to do was add a new and better looking closet, so I looked in ccs and mods, I downloaded some, but after I had tried to make room on my pc, I accidentally deleted my mods folder, well after trying to restore the files to no avail, (yes I looked in the recycling bin, I had emptied it already) I tried my best to reconstruct my folder, but after opening the game again, it's still almost completely wiped of all my progress, I'm wondering if there's a chance in heck that I'd be able to get the progress back if I haven't backed it up. I've already tried recuva and other file recovery sites but still nothing has done anything to help, just grieving for now.
