Microsoft OneDrive Deleted My Files After Uninstalling

Shortly after I uninstalled Microsoft OneDrive from my computer, I noticed that programs installed on my computer as well as important personal files had also been deleted. When uninstalling OneDrive, I expected the process to affect only the cloud or the OneDrive application itself, so losing data stored locally on my computer has caused me significant inconvenience.

I am currently unable to access programs that were previously installed on my computer or important files that I had stored there. I have not yet contacted Microsoft Support about this issue, but I want an explanation of what happened, the deleted files and programs to be recovered if possible, and a clear, solution-focused response explaining what steps I should take to resolve the situation.

Because I did not see a clear and understandable warning that uninstalling OneDrive would cause data to be deleted from my computer, I request that Microsoft address the inconvenience I have experienced and take the necessary steps to provide clearer information and prevent similar situations from happening again.
