Research direction

The issue mentions an outline/file and a backup copy, but no repository file or test. Start by checking whether the application's local storage or backup process retains a version from before Friday the 15th; done means confirming recoverability or explaining that no earlier copy exists.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Somehow I hit the delete key an extra time and it deleted a top level topic above where I was trying to delete a period or something. That wiped out a year's worth of data that I would like to recover. Is there any way to get to a backup copy of the outline/file to get that topic back? Is there a local copy of the file that I can pull that back from? The unintentional deletion happened on Friday night the 15th, so would need a backup from earlier than then. Many thanks.
