You post this in the Lightroom CC forum, but from what you say it sounds like you are using Lightroom Classic (or an earlier version). Lightroom works with a catalog. That is where the edits are stored. If you had to reset your computer, then you have to restore that catalog from a backup and open it in Lightroom. How to back up catalogs in Lightroom Classic CC

Which Lightroom are you using? Where do your original images reside?
