If you have deleted your OneDrive data and it has also been removed from the recycle bin, recovery options are limited. Typically, when a OneDrive is deleted, it is retained in a deleted state for 93 days, but after that period, the data is permanently deleted and cannot be recovered through standard means.
However, if you are within the 93-day window, you may still be able to restore your OneDrive using PowerShell or by contacting a SharePoint Administrator. If the data was deleted beyond this retention period, you may need to reach out to Microsoft Support for further assistance, but recovery is not guaranteed.
For future reference, it's advisable to regularly back up important files or use the OneDrive Files Restore feature, which allows users to restore files to any point over the past 30 days.
