All of my Paint 3d projects were deleted. Help.

Question

So I was about to do some stuff with one of my paint 3d models, but when I opened paint 3d, all of my paint 3d models were gone. I can't risk losing these since ALL of the models I've ever used were made and posed in paint 3d. Please if you know how to fix this, tell me.

actually, it's not deleted, if you look in the files you will see all your old models, I had this problem multiple times, actually, just copy paste this in the top middle box: %localappdata%\Packages\Microsoft.MSPaint_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\Projects
