Restore deleted data from Mac Laptop

Unfortunately I deleted all my documents on my Mac laptop desktop folder. I have 22days to restore the files and I am having difficulties restoring the data. I have tried restoring from iCloud.com but cannot. So any help will be appreciated

Check the pdf files in recently deleted folder, it will be bottom right corner , click on recover all .

If you had selected the files and clicked on delete all they are permanently erased from the server and can't be recovered back ,

Try to recover the items individually , your data size of each pdf folder seems to be massive , don't select all and restore .






Note : after 30 days the files are also erased if that are placed in recently deleted folder see the article https://support.apple.com/guide/icloud/recover-deleted-files-mmae56ea1ca5/icloud
