Subfolder was wiped out

I created a shared folder (\\<hostname>\Data2\Esri\gtg-resources\) on server A (Windows Server 2008).  I saved some XML files to the subfolder via servers B & C (Windows Server 2019).  Unfortunately, all of the XML files are missing.  The subfolder (gtg-resources) is empty.   I logged back onto servers B & C, I could see that records of files in that directory in the “Recent files” shortcut within Windows Explorer.  The other subfolders in \\<hostname>\Data2\Esri\ have nothing wrong.  I also checked recycle bin on server A, and it's empty.  Shadow Copies function is not enabled and there are no previous versions available on Server A.  IT nightly backups show empty folder as well.  

I was puzzled why files in the subfolder are missing?  How do I know what happened with the files? Can someone tell me what probably happened to the subfolder?  Is there any way to get them back if they were deleted accidentally?

Many thanks!

Charles
