I've been playing minecraft on my PC for about three years now, and I use the screenshot function very often. I was trying to show a friend a build that I had made a while ago, and found that my screenshots folder had been wiped. It had two screenshots from very early in the morning 12/2, and nothing before that. I've tried using Recuva in multiple files containing .minecraft, searching for the files in case they were moved, going through my recycle bin, using Recuva on my recycle bin, restarting my computer, going through alternate paths to get to the folder in case there was a duplicate, looking to restore past versions, all sorts of things. Nothing has turned up any leads or anything. I'm not sure what happened especially because I hadn't played minecraft for over a week before those two screenshots. The most recent proof I have of my screenshots was from August 10th when I put some up on my twitter, but I know I've gone through them more recently.
Has anyone had any problems like this before? It is really upsetting to have lost all those memories and references, so I really want to get them back. I saw a thread somewhere that uninstalling and reinstalling minecraft might help, so I'll try that next.
Did you reinstall Minecraft recently? If so, you may have deleted the screenshots folder.

No, not that I know of. I have been making a modpack for myself, but that was through the twitch client. It shouldn't have impacted Vanilla, right?
