If you mean you hit the delete button, you can always go to your computer’s garbage can and dig it out of the trash - I mean restore it from your computer’s recycling bin

Yes, I pushed the delete button on the '24 return. How do I find my computer's garbage can? I suppose I will ask a young person tomorrow... Thanks.

You should have a Recycle Bin right on the Windows Desktop, I think it defaults to the upper left corner of the screen, do you see a garbage can up there?

Find it in your backups.
