Another excellent reason not to leave your computer on overnight.
Since we have no information on what kind of computer - PC or Mac - and what version of the OS you are using, as well as some information on your setup - like any external drives, I am at a loss to offer up any ideas on what happened.
Yeh, I'm a dufus. It's Win 10. Even the recycle bin is empty. The base start-up screen used to be a colorful feather, now it is a window with the light shining through. Fair warning to rest of the group, turn computer off at night.
