How to recover deleted blocks in Onenote?

How to recover deleted blocks in Onenote? I tried on OneDrive, I see they are there, but I can't download.

Hi hansleroy
Yes, I looked there. There's nothing. It is clean.
This happened a week ago, after the HD had problems and had to replace it with a new one. Perhaps that can guide you better.

Thanks!

Hi renatosilva ,

Did you look in the Recycle Bin? It isn't visible at first sight.

I looked there, nothing of the subject. In your answer, I can't find Choose File> Info> Open Backups.

Hirenatosilva ,
No idea where that File> Info> Open Backups comes from - not from me.
From here, I'd open a CMD prompt, go to the drive with the backups and issue
dir *.one /s
Or else, do a search for
*.one
in Windows Explorer.
Kind regards

  Hi hansleroy
  
  After CMD, look at what happened. I think the two blocks I'm looking for are missing, IUESO *** and IFG ***. What do you think?After CMD

    Hi hansleroy
    
    A friend (coach) did it for me. You partitioned the hard drive into C \: and F \ :, on which is the entire backup. He returned the old hard drive, but I don't know if it works anymore.
    
    Thanks!
