Do you have take a look into the trash or bin. Normally a file doesn't delete directly. It will be moved to the trash.

My System: Intel i7-8700K - 64GB RAM - NVidia Geforce RTX 3060 - Windows 11 Pro 25H2 -- LR-Classic 15 - Photoshop 27 - Nik Collection 8 - PureRAW 5 - Topaz Photo

What backup, the backup within LrC? That only backs up the catalog.

Yes. But doesn't that back up the imported pictures?

Imported images are not in the catalog file. They are simply files on your hard disk. So backing up the catalog does not make backups of the photos. You need to use some third party software to make regular and automated backups of your photos.

Are the photos still on the camera card?

Advice: you should not delete photos from your camera card until they have been backed up.

Thank you. No. I usually delete after I import them. I learned my lesson.
