1＃ Go ToI am on Mac OS Mojave 10.
So I had a folder on my usb * called 'photos', which I was trying to move into my do*ents, where there was also another folder called 'photos'. It then said 'do you want to overwrite this folder', I accidentally pressed yes, so the folder in do*ents called photos (of which I believe i have only one version) is now gone....
I am trying to undo... and have just learnt when you overwrite a folder this is not like deletion. It doesn't go into the *.
Time machine is not something i've used before so when I open the app it tells me there is only 'today', and there appears to be no record of the photos folder that I lost, that was in do*ents.
Who knows any other ways to restore? ?? !! Would be extremely grateful as this folder has many important photos and memories... thank you.P.S. I know I am incredibly * for not having backups

There is something called Safe mode, or something similar in windowws. I know youre using mac, so if they have this you could try that. What Running in safe mode does is rever the pc back to a previous date, similar to a time machine.
Otherwise, you could take it in to a computer shop. A small mom and pop shop with someone who knows what they're doing. They may be able to get the files back fo you for a price. You should call in and see if someone could do it.
You may be wondering, why a mom and pop shop? places like geek squad might be able to do it, but often times they rip people off. Or just staight up lie. You take a laptop in to get the keyboard replaced cuz you dropped some waater on it, they tell you the whole thing's broken and you should just let them "recycle" it, and just buy yourself a whole nother laptop.
