another solution that you may recover your project, if you use AME to render, mostly media encoder create a folder inside your project folder and that folder include a .aep file just try to open tht file it may definitely help recover your project or a part of your project if you're not rendering the main composition

Please look for an auto save folder by where your project is saved.

Open the latest one. Hopefully you can find an auto save which will be of help to you.

You should have been able to perform an Undo (CTRL + Z). Additionally, you should not have lost all of your assets if you did not first select at least one Project Item - please provide a screen grab of your Project Panel if you have not resolved this issue.
