I want to restore the Windows.old folder

My Windows.Old folder is deleted since I wasn't aware that it would be automatically deleted after 28 days. . How can I retrieve the folder as I had some crucial files and folders hidden in there?

Please help.

Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

When Windows automatically deletes the Windows.Old folder, it does not go to the Recycle Bin, it is deleted permanently, there is no native method to restore that folder or its contained data, the only hope you have is to use some 3rd party recovery tool to try to undelete the files you need from the Windows.Old folder.
