I accidentally deleted userdata folder.

HI guys.
I was drunk with some friends and i wanted to delete some folders and i ended up removing userdata folder(D:/Steam/userdata) and i can't recover it.
There reappeared a new folder in same location with same name, but with another folder in it,
for example:
before was
235973
843423
760325
326232
650995
and another one
now is just 869286047.
Ets2 for example is not working properly anymore, csgo aswell.
What can i do?

LOL. Same here.
I go to a bar, take my laptop and delete folders too. More fun with friends.

You may want to start Googling about "restoring deleted folders" software, most range from freeware to p2w. Most are useless, to helpful and some will do exactly what they are designed to do and aside from actual mechanical issues, these few utilities will restore "lost" files as best as possible.

I use several software but I think this one will help, but it costs around $70 USD on up.
You may have to use your booze money to get, it's called "Recover My Files Data Recovery Software"

Stick around OP, hopefully other Steam users can offer you their suggestions

One more thing, you can go to your "Library" part of the Steam Client, and select "games" on the pulldown menu, find your game in the left side panel.

I'm assuming you're on a Windows OS, anyways highlight that game, right-click it to bring up a small pop-up menu, choose the "properties" on the bottom, this will bring up a large pop-up box with tabs.

Choose the "local files" tab, and near the bottom, choose the "verify integrity of game files" button, this will automatically check the game files and the Steam client will download any missing and/or updated files and install.
After this process completes, you should be able to run your game again (fingers-crossed)
