Deleted files on server

Hello
I accidentally deleted several files on the company server from my personal computer, so there's no trace in any recycle bin
I tried PC Inspector File Recovery (on the server) but it doesn't seem to recover them
What can I do?
Thank you for your guidance
Configuration: Windows XP Firefox 2.0.0.6

Consult the server backups?

No backup? Then there's a problem: There should always be backups of a server.

If PC Inspector File Recovery didn't yield anything, there is little chance of recovering the file. Have you tried with other software? https://sebsauvage.net/logiciels/restoration.html

Hello SEB, and thank you for your prompt reply.
Unfortunately, the administrator of my professional network is on vacation, and there hasn't been a data backup for the past 15 days.
I should mention that I overwrote 34 EXCEL spreadsheets last Friday (my work week), due to XP which misled me (renaming these 34 files all at once under the same name made me foolishly think there were 33 copies of the original...).
After scanning, the relevant directory appears completely empty in the PC INSPECTOR tree, whereas it does contain unhidden files (and not hidden ones)?!
Moreover, it therefore cannot find the ones I deleted, unless they appear with a different extension than .xls and/or in a different location?
I don't think this is a problem with PC INSPECTOR settings, as it correctly finds other EXCEL files on the disk, just not the right ones...
I will keep searching.
Roger
