Hi @HASSEN BEN ZINEB​ , Unfortunately, there is no possible way to restore the deleted files from DBFS. Only possible way is to have a backup and restore it to the DBFS. Please go through the DBFS document for more details.

Hi @HASSEN BEN ZINEB​, It would mean a lot if you could select the "Best Answer" to help others find the correct answer faster.

This makes that answer appear right after the question, so it's easier to find within a thread.

It also helps us mark the question as answered so we can have more eyes helping others with unanswered questions.
