If you (or someone you shared a file with) accidentally deletes a file from your OneDrive, it will be stored in your OneDrive Recycle Bin for 30 days. Within that period you can restore the files back to their original location from the recycle bin. If it has been longer than 30 days, but less than 90 days since a file was deleted, you can still create a Help Desk ticket, which should get escalated to End User Technology (EUT), and an admin should be able to restore them for you.
