Hey friends!

Any way to recover the vdisk file from a VM whas had I deleted it?

The proxmox just delete vm+disk or just move the disk image to another folder?

Thank you!!
 
Backup?
Otherwise you're likely looking at a data recovery agency. Their are expensive tools which "might" do something, but likely not. The file system has marked the area as free and likely written over it by now depending on free space and utilisation of system,
 
Proxmox removes the disk images when it removes the VM. It's part of the "qm destroy" process when you remove a VM.
