Thanks for the info, unfortunately, as you were removed from this shared folder, it wouldn't be possible for the support team to recover the files within it.

 

I'm sorry I can't be more helpful on this matter. If you have any other devices that haven't yet connected to the internet since you were removed from the shared folder, it's possible that the data would still be there.
