This was a List in Teams created with the List app? Does it still exist in the Lists web app? Login to https://login.microsoftonline.com and look for the Lists icon on the left app rail > click on it. Does the List still exist there with the data in? If not restore it from the SharePoint recycling bin

If it persists in Teams, remove and re-add the app and add an existing list

Best, Chris

The list still exists with all of its contents when I access Sharepoint via the browser. This was not the case but when I deleted it and restored it from the bin it returned it to its original state. It is still a file explorer in the Teams desktop app. This closes the issue for me since I can now just move all the contents to a different platform.
Thank you for your quick help.
