With no backup, there is unfortunately no reliable way to get those UiPath projects back if the .xaml files are truly 0 KB
Indeed, if you didnt make any backups, and it seems you didnt create a GIT history, if you deleted the files then they are gone. This is a windows thing, so if backups arent set up for that drive and nothing is in the recycle bin your work is gone.
Its obviously no solution to the current issue, but moving forward I’d strongly recommend using Source Control, even if you dont push to a remote, the local history is super important.

I’d strong recommend against working with a Onedrive Location.
One drive is an absolute **** at messing up your files, especially code, with nonsense sync issues.
The best practice is on the local disk, with source control etc. Onedrive is the most awful setup in my experience.

Good you find your code, but I would recommend you Use source control like GIT even if you don’t push to remote.
One more important thing, avoid storing your projects directly OneDrive because automated sync, may sometimes lock your file and changes may not be saved in real-time leading to issues.
