After effects comp is missing from the project

Question

Hey! I'm doing revisions on a project and just found out that one of the compositions got deleted from a project completely. I didn't delete it myself so this is a very weird situation. Does anyone experienced similar situation and is there a way to somehow recover the deleted comp? (It's not in the available auto saves)

Do you have a cloud back up of your drives? I've managed to save projects from the version history before through that.

Is it defintely deleted? Just yesterday I thought I must have lost a comp in a very big project, but found it eventually as it had been badly named by someone (which is weird because it was a solo project, 😉 ) I found it in the end by search for "comp" in the project panel, which listed all the compositions and then going through each one.
