Sudden lost of my colab files

my file in google colab is lost when i was working in the colab now its not there except the default files.any suggestions

no you cann’t restore them they were in the colab docker image as a virtual machine so you cann’t get them back :slight_smile: it’s cloud computing so what i do when i use free tier is be connected to google drive and copy the model checkpoint or data that is important to me

thanks so much for enlightening me
