Hi guys,
I was trying to purge some files from the computer and I think I removed the Cache directory or some other System folder. So when I restared the computer, I had to create a new icon and set it up.
The storage has not changed: 250GB are taken (this is the size of all my files before I messed with the folders) and 36GB are free.
However I cannot see where the files went. There is nothing under /Users (username is the same), or ~/Library or anywhere else. All folders seem to be practically newly created (as in a clean installation).
Any ideas where, how, I can locate my files.
Thanks

[doublepost=1537740406][/doublepost]I think I got it. The whole User directory was in /private/var/.Trash, so I was able to change the permissions and back it up!
